21st November 2024
21 Nov 2024 Joy Morrissey MP (@joymorrissey) RT @johnredwood: Ed Miliband should not pledge the U.K. to give more money to help other countries with net zero policies when the governme… [Source]
21 Nov 2024 Claire Coutinho MP (@ClaireCoutinho) The climate change lobby have been itching to get this on the statute book for years because it uses higher costs to force people to buy heat pumps. [Source]
21 Nov 2024 Yvette Cooper MP (@YvetteCooperMP) Such sad news about John Prescott. A campaigning Labour hero & a remarkable minister who transformed lives - upgrading millions of council homes, coalfield regeneration, tackling climate change. Fierce & warm hearted - there was no one like him. Thinking of Pauline & family today [Source]
21 Nov 2024 Carla Denyer MP (@carla_denyer) My thoughts are with John Prescott’s loved ones this morning - he made a huge impact on British politics, and on global climate action (one of the lead architects of Kyoto protocol), thanks to his combination of principles and down to earth straight talking. May he rest in peace [Source]
21 Nov 2024 Graham Stuart MP (@grahamstuart) I'm so sorry to hear that the Prescott family has lost John. He was brilliant company, always challenging and surprisingly funny and warm. He brought humanity to debates on climate change and could bring people from all over the world under his spell. RIP. [Source]
21 Nov 2024 Lucy Powell MP (@LucyMPowell) What a legend. Not only was John Prescott one of the best campaigners of our movement, he put the issues of climate change and real levelling up across regions at the top of political agenda long before they were fashionable. He was ground-breaking. And huge fun. RIP https://x.com/LucyMPowell/status/1859500867407208904/photo/1 [Source]
20 Nov 2024 Stephen Doughty MP (@SDoughtyMP) The UK ???????? is listening to, and strengthening our bond with the Overseas Territories to help deliver security, prosperity, modern partnerships, transparency, tackle climate change and protect our natural world.

20 Nov 2024 Clive Lewis MP (@labourlewis) 4/9 Rate hikes explicitly throttle wages and employment. Food price inflation and volatility are increasingly the result of climate breakdown (significant flooding has produced some of the worst harvests in recent memory). [Source]
20 Nov 2024 Clive Lewis MP (@labourlewis) 2/9 ...actually pushed up by very real-world, increasingly intractable phenomena such as climate breakdown in the wake of the pandemic and Russian military violence towards Ukraine. [Source]
20 Nov 2024 Kerry McCarthy MP (@KerryMP) Proud that the UK will co-chair the Forest Climate Leaders Partnership with Guyana. Delivering on the 2030 goal to halt and reverse forest loss is vital for communities, climate and biodiversity. I look forward to working together to galvanise action on protecting forests. #COP29 https://x.com/KerryMP/status/1859290190658806191/photo/1 [Source]
20 Nov 2024 Kerry McCarthy MP (@KerryMP) Another important discussion at #COP29 last week. I spent 3 productive days in Baku, speaking at events on climate finance, forests, methane, carbon markets, coal, industrial decarbonisation, sustainable cooling, green grids & more - as well as meeting ministerial counterparts. https://twitter.com/tariyeg/status/1858449560768573918 [Source]

18 Nov 2024 Zarah Sultana MP (@zarahsultana) The cost-of-living crisis is far from over, yet the government’s 50% increase to the bus fare cap is a political choice, adding hundreds to annual costs.
To address hardship & the climate crisis, the government must keep the £2 cap & make public transport accessible for all. https://x.com/zarahsultana/status/1858598986040680829/video/1 [Source]
18 Nov 2024 Michael Shanks MP (@mgshanks) The last wind turbine has been installed at the Moray West offshore wind farm.
All 160 blades were built in Hull, & when fully operational in 2025 it will provide up to 50% of Scotland's electricity & save over 1.1 million tonnes of CO2 emissions every year. https://twitter.com/siemensgamesa/status/1858457640336032031 [Source]

17 Nov 2024 Danny Chambers MP (@DannyVet) Given the urgency of these issues, the government must outline plans to elevate the connection between antimicrobial resistance and climate as priority issues at #COP29. [Source]
17 Nov 2024 Danny Chambers MP (@DannyVet) Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains one of the most pressing global health threats, and the recent update to the UK’s AMR strategy underscores its direct links with climate change, noting that low- and middle-income countries bear the greatest burden. [Source]
17 Nov 2024 Danny Chambers MP (@DannyVet) Antimicrobial resistance remains one of the most pressing global health threats and climate change is making it worse. I wrote to the health secretary asking the government to leverage UK expertise on this matter at #COP29 and ensure we do our part to mitigate this global threat. https://x.com/DannyVet/status/1858120915344601194/photo/1 [Source]

14 Nov 2024 Kerry McCarthy MP (@KerryMP) A privilege to be at my first COP29 as the UK’s Climate Minister. Action is now more important than ever.

13 Nov 2024 Claire Coutinho MP (@ClaireCoutinho) Mad. Even the Climate Change Committee says we’ll be using oil and gas in 2050.
Why get ‘emotional’?
Because 200k British jobs are on the line. £12bn tax revenue which is now being squeezed out of pensioners, farmers and business instead. All for imports with MORE emissions. https://twitter.com/lbc/status/1856449061705937032 [Source]

12 Nov 2024 James MacCleary MP (@JamesMacCleary) #COP29, let’s remember: climate action isn’t just about cutting emissions-it’s about supporting communities on the frontlines.

COP29 presents the golden opportunity for the Prime Minister to be a global climate leader once more, and ratchet up our new Paris Agreement targets for 2035. https://twitter.com/UNFCCC/status/1855959914121740664 [Source]

08 Nov 2024 Wera Hobhouse MP (@Wera_Hobhouse) With COP29 just around the corner, these are wise words of warning from the UN secretary general.
Most leading climate scientists anticipate global heating will exceed 1.5C above pre-industrial levels.
There's no time to waste. Across the globe, it's essential to act now. https://twitter.com/guardianeco/status/1854750988852437244 [Source]
08 Nov 2024 Stephen Flynn MP (@StephenFlynnSNP) This will not surprise anyone.
But what it must do is finally focus minds in London that their choices could create a cliff edge.
A cliff edge will hit investment, energy security, workers and our ability to meet Net Zero.
A just energy transition can’t just be warm words. https://twitter.com/bbcnortheast/status/1854641186830504156 [Source]

01 Nov 2024 Anna McMorrin MP (@AnnaMcMorrin) If you carved a pumpkin this Halloween, remember to place it in your food waste bin so it can be transformed into green energy. Simply leave it next to or on top of your food bin for collection—no need to cut it into chunks.
Please ensure any candles, wax, etc are removed. https://x.com/AnnaMcMorrin/status/1852313106644336793/photo/1 [Source]
