26 May 2022 Jeevun Sandher MP (@JeevunSandher) Bonkers part of windfall tax:
Oil and gas companies will get a 91% tax deduction for money they invest in extracting more fossil fuels
Why is the Treasury incentivising oil and gas extraction? If we want to get to net zero, we need to get that cash into renewables [Source]
26 May 2022 Carla Denyer MP (@carla_denyer) Sunak's #WindfallTax is missing a trick, it incentivises further O&G investment & fails to incentivise renewables that can both reduce bills and tackle the climate crisis.
It is another missed opportunity to shape a clean green economy for the future.

17 May 2022 Max Wilkinson MP (@mpmwilko) Progress will inevitably be less quick than we'd like. Much of the Net Zero work simply cannot be done by Cheltenham and local authorities alone. But the building blocks are now in place. Good luck to my successor as climate emergency cabinet member: @Alishacmlewis. [Source]
17 May 2022 Max Wilkinson MP (@mpmwilko) Huge thanks also to @Vision21Glos@PlanetChelt and everyone who has joined @CheltenhamZero. A lot has been achieved since the climate emergency portfolio was setup. We now have a Climate Emergency Action Plan, new planning rules, £10m Cheltenham Green Deal... [Source]
17 May 2022 Max Wilkinson MP (@mpmwilko) Pleased to have started a new role as the @CheltenhamBC cabinet member for Economic Development, Culture, Tourism and Wellbeing. I've enjoyed helping setup the local climate emergency work with our hardworking council officers. Thank you. [Source]

07 May 2022 Vikki Slade MP (@VikkiSlade72) @svmitche@C20Society@arripay@hadleyac@HistoricEngland@BCPCouncil Me too! I raised questions with planning initially about heritage protection & also challenged why embodied carbon wasn’t considered plus future net zero. I think the answer will be they are not current planning considerations which is why our new local plan MUST be stronger [Source]

06 May 2022 Adrian Ramsay MP (@AdrianRamsay) Voters have responded to the positive alternative Greens offer on local issues, the cost of living crisis and the climate emergency.
A huge and heartfelt thank you to Green campaigners for your tireless, incredible work and to everyone who voted for Green councillors. [Source]
04 May 2022 Josh Fenton-Glynn MP (@JoshFG) Tomorrow, in Calderdale, and across the UK, Labour councillors and candidates will be campaigning. We will be putting a vision across of local authorities standing up against cuts, delivering services and fighting climate change. I couldn’t be more proud to stand with them ???? [Source]
04 May 2022 Josh Fenton-Glynn MP (@JoshFG) @mag_worden@UKLabour Seemed unpleasant. Perhaps collectivism wasn’t for you. I hope you channel your obviously passion and activism into something worthwhile. I’ll concentrate on keeping a labour council who invested in opposing climate change and putting up care workers wages ???? [Source]
