30 Jun 2023 Anna Dixon MP (@annalouisedixon) Stinging attack from Tory minister on the PM’s lack of leadership on tackling the climate crisis
‘the UK has visibly stepped off the world stage and withdrawn our leadership on climate and nature …The problem is … that you, our prime minister, are simply uninterested’ https://twitter.com/guardian/status/1674723398381973505 [Source]
30 Jun 2023 Tom Rutland MP (@tomrutland) I am a big supporter of the UK reaping the rewards of leading the world to Net Zero.
JSO are some of the worst campaigners I’ve ever seen. They win over no-one. They alienate potential allies. They claim credit for the wins of hard, thoughtful campaigning work by others. https://twitter.com/JustStop_Oil/status/1674478849692692480 [Source]
28 Jun 2023 Vikki Slade MP (@VikkiSlade72) @TanglewoodSteve@MrsA4boys@LikeEngineer@RobertSyms Yes it’s clear they feel the government has not kept up the pace. I wonder if this is because there is an election and they are mistakenly thinking that the public do not care about climate change. Haven’t had a chance to read it yet I’ll give it a try at the weekend [Source]

20 Jun 2023 Euan Stainbank MP (@Euan4FKSouth) Scotland misses its target for cutting greenhouse gases with domestic transport the largest emitter.
If the SG want to reduce individual car miles they must match this with the proper resources to allow public transport to properly serve our people.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-65960717 [Source]
19 Jun 2023 Andrew Bowie MP (@AndrewBowie_MP) New nuclear has a crucial role to play as we seek to transition to #NetZero greenhouse gas emissions in 2050. I'm the only technology that is currently proven, and it can be deployed on a sufficiently large scale to provide continuous, reliable & low carbon electricity. ???? ⚡️ [Source]

10 Jun 2023 Simon Opher MP (@SimonforStroud) Great reception in Arlingham this week.
People are worried about:
????climate change
????the cost of living
????????????????broken society
The Tories offer soap opera politics & a government unable to tackle the crises which they helped create.
It's time for change????
We need #GeneralElectionNow????️ https://twitter.com/SimonforStroud/status/1667573411957075968/photo/1 [Source]
10 Jun 2023 Simon Opher MP (@SimonforStroud) There doesn’t need be any cost to getting to 100% green energy. Remove the bans (real and de facto) on onshore wind/solar developments, tidy planning criteria & level the playing field - industry will do the rest. Which, of course, could be happening now.

09 Jun 2023 Adrian Ramsay MP (@AdrianRamsay) The figure also includes £12bn toward renewables and £14bn toward rail, walking and cycling.
Labour's fickle response to the climate crisis shows more than ever why we need more Green MPs elected at the next General Election.

09 Jun 2023 Adrian Ramsay MP (@AdrianRamsay) Our pledges are based on what's needed to tackle the joint climate and cost of living crises. The numbers need to add up both for the climate and the budget.
We have pledged to invest ~£100bn/year for 10 years to decarbonise our economy, including £25bn on home insulation. [Source]
09 Jun 2023 Adrian Ramsay MP (@AdrianRamsay) It's true that the Conservatives have damaged our economy, but we're in a climate emergency, seeing environmental breakdown at an alarming rate, so this is no time for Labour to roll back their pledge to invest in the green industries that provide the jobs we need for the future. [Source]

09 Jun 2023 Dan Tomlinson MP (@Dan4Barnet) Anyone who thought that Labour should spend £28bn of "new" money in Year 1 of a Labour govt on the net zero agenda has clearly never been near government, policy making, delivery or procurement.
Common sense to commit to increase investment to that target over time. [Source]

04 Jun 2023 Andrew Lewin MP (@Andrew_Lewin_) A very clear message from @jreynoldsMP on #Ridge.
"New licenses for North Sea Oil will cost huge amounts of public money and be a disaster for the climate."
The opportunity lies in accelerating the transition to Net Zero and creating new green jobs. [Source]
