22nd February 2025
22 Feb 2025 Alison Taylor MP (@Alison_S_Taylor) A record devolution budget settlement bringing over £5 billion of additional public funds into Scotland over the next two years. A new green energy company and a pay rise for 200,000 Scots. An end to zero hour contracts and a ban on smoking for anyone born now. Personally- you will know from my campaign and since elected I am working with the airport and our Labour elected officials as well as other stakeholders to find an immediate way forward for the Glasgow Airport rail link. I am having v [Source]
22 Feb 2025 Alex Burghart MP (@alexburghart) RT @afneil: We can afford a major military build if we simply transfer resources from the pointless pursuit of net zero to defence. [Source]
21 Feb 2025 Carla Denyer MP (@carla_denyer) Really interesting to meet with the Centre for Sustainable Energy, based here in Bristol, to discuss how we can work together to make homes warmer and more energy efficient and to ensure that our communities are given the training and skills needed for a cleaner, greener future. https://x.com/carla_denyer/status/1892957285397205357/photo/1 [Source]

19 Feb 2025 Luke Charters MP (@lukejcr) Brilliant to visit the iconic York Minster last week and hear about their impressive efforts to decarbonise the estate from retrofitting to solar panels and much more.
It was particularly special to visit as my Dad was an apprentice joiner on the Minster after the fire in 1984 and is fantastic to see an iconic feature of York leading the way for a sustainable future! [Source]
19 Feb 2025 Ben Maguire MP (@BenMaguireNC) ???? Have really enjoyed all of my constituency meetings this week - this time, with Kevin and Lena from Wadebridge Renewable Energy Network (WREN)! ☀️
WREN is helping Wadebridge and the surrounding area cut emissions and lower energy costs through local renewable projects. ♻️
They’re also supporting a new 'Low Carbon Energy Advisor' network to help people make greener choices.
Community energy groups like WREN are key to a cleaner, more sustainable future here in North Cornwall, an [Source]

16 Feb 2025 Richard Tice MP (@TiceRichard) Climate change has gone on for millions of years
It always will
Much smarter to adapt to it, than arrogantly think you can stop power of sun or volcanoes
Only Reform will stop British people being ripped off by vested interests of renewables industry https://twitter.com/skynews/status/1891102109715624099 [Source]

13 Feb 2025 Tessa Munt MP (@tessamunt) Delighted at this huge legislative win for LibDems, campaigners and community groups through a coordinated effort in both Houses. The govt amendment means a strong statutory steer towards community energy and benefits from renewable energy projects. Congrats to all who campaigned https://x.com/tessamunt/status/1890099113389445457/photo/1 [Source]
13 Feb 2025 Ben Obese-Jecty MP (@BenObeseJecty) @ChiefPieEater Where did I have a go at him? It’s you who’s critical of renewable energy and the party you support who wants to ban battery storage. I’ve simply highlighted that Farage and Lowe clearly don’t get on. [Source]
13 Feb 2025 Ed Miliband MP (@Ed_Miliband) The global race for clean power is on.
British businesses can play a vital role in the clean energy transition, by using our world-leading innovation and technology to create jobs, drive investment and tackle the climate crisis.
Great to be in India earlier this week ???????????????? https://x.com/Ed_Miliband/status/1890027196888334681/video/1 [Source]

12 Feb 2025 Stella Creasy MP (@stellacreasy) See Reform deciding to tax windmills rather than just tilt at them.
Renewable energy critical to growth & climate- helping lower bills & lower carbon use so good for our health and our bank balances.
The only person going backwards on energy security like this helps is Putin. https://twitter.com/reformparty_uk/status/1889763078310371762 [Source]

12 Feb 2025 Luke Murphy MP (@LukeMLabour) ???? Retrofit failures: How do we move forward on warm homes?
At 3pm today, the Energy Security & Net Zero Committee will hear from those directly affected by solid wall insulation failures under past Government schemes. With widespread poor installations uncovered, we’ll be asking: who is responsible, and how will this be fixed?
A second panel at 4pm will then assess how we reshape industry regulation to ensure the Government’s Warm Homes Plan delivers on its promise of safe, high-qua [Source]

11 Feb 2025 Lilian Greenwood MP (@LilianGreenwood) @andythelodge@AmazonUK Switching to EVs = cutting the carbon emissions causing catastrophic climate change and reducing air pollution which damages health. Both disproportionately impact the poorest in society. [Source]
11 Feb 2025 Daisy Cooper MP (@libdemdaisy) ✈️ Airport expansion should not happen before a climate emissions framework is in place, inc at Luton.
I pressed the Commons Leader for a debate on any emissions framework *first* - but all that was promised was a debate on any airport expansion decision itself ???? https://x.com/libdemdaisy/status/1889243460219158759/video/1 [Source]

10 Feb 2025 Keir Mather MP (@Mather_Keir) We’ve made this decision to provide energy security for Britain, secure value for money for bill payers, and to push us toward a sustainable energy future. It shows that the Government is committed to clearing up the mess we inherited last July. [Source]
10 Feb 2025 Al Carns MP (@AlistairCarns) Thank you to residents who joined me recently for the Environmental and Energy event at Cotteridge Quaker Meeting House. It was good to listen to the views and experiences of local people on these key issues which affect us all.
Thanks also to Revd Richard Wharton (Vicar of Bournville Parish Church), Chris Martin (Cotteridge Quakers) and Cllr Mary Locke, who joined in the discussion and answered questions.
Discussion points on the evening included retrofitting and insulation of homes, decarbon [Source]
10 Feb 2025 Bob Blackman MP (@BobBlackman) Great to visit Whitefriars School to see their Friday enrichment afternoons.
Students get a chance to learn new skills, including chess!
I also watched the debating club talk about AI and the Net Zero club to learn about their plans to reduce the school's energy footprint. https://x.com/BobBlackman/status/1888909454667612172/photo/1 [Source]
10 Feb 2025 Chris Hazzard MP (@ChrisHazzardSF) Britain has plundered & pillaged the four corners of the earth for centuries, London the fulcrum of both the Atlantic slave & eastern Opium triangles; now in a world of cascading crises with ordinary people facing destitution, famine, climate catastrophe they want to build a wall https://twitter.com/keir_starmer/status/1888860515734003765 [Source]

09 Feb 2025 Richard Tice MP (@TiceRichard) Battery Energy Storage Systems have huge fire risk
Last month thousands evacuated as one burnt for 5 days in California, releasing toxic fumes into air and heavy metals into soil and rivers.
Fires cannot be extinguished due to thermal runaway; have to wait days for them to burn out slowly
Net Stupid Zero zealots like Miliband want hundreds of these systems by all solar farms in UK
Only @reformparty_uk will scrap Net Zero and stop this dangerous risk to citizens

07 Feb 2025 Munira Wilson MP (@munirawilson) So Energy & Net Zero Secretary @Ed_Miliband all but admits on R4 this morning that he doesn't agree with a 3rd runway at Heathrow, saying "I abide by collective responsibility". He knows expansion is bad for our planet and bad for our local environment. [Source]
07 Feb 2025 Vikki Slade MP (@VikkiSlade72) @MattSimpsonEcho Matt it’s not just about money - or don’t you believe in climate change? Using diesel is incredibly damaging to the environment & is being phased out, we also have to factor air pollution which is bad for health [Source]

04 Feb 2025 Clive Lewis MP (@labourlewis) 7/ Home retrofitting to cut energy bills, create jobs, and tackle the climate crisis. Expanding universal basic services—from transport to childcare—so people’s lives aren’t at the mercy of profiteers. That’s the way forward, not reactionary panic over Reform UK. [Source]
04 Feb 2025 Nick Timothy MP (@NJ_Timothy) Today I challenged Ed Miliband to guarantee that the British carbon price would remain lower than the European price for the remainder of this parliament.
He refused. The carbon price set out in his plan to decarbonise the grid will destroy British industry. https://x.com/NJ_Timothy/status/1886759946257064061/video/1 [Source]
03 Feb 2025 Mike Kane MP (@MikeKaneMP) Fantastic to see @UK_CAA leading the charge on zero-emission flight ✈
It’s this sort of pioneering work that will make aviation more sustainable, benefit passengers by boosting economic growth through trade and tourism, and support jobs across the country ???? https://twitter.com/UK_CAA/status/1886338685789966439 [Source]
03 Feb 2025 Robert Jenrick MP (@RobertJenrick) Another flagship Labour manifesto commitment ditched.
Miliband has put 30,000 jobs under threat by refusing new oil and gas licences.
His vanity project will create 200 jobs to replace them.
British workers are being sacrificed for his net zero zealotry. https://twitter.com/skynews/status/1886367733362655663 [Source]
03 Feb 2025 Luke Charters MP (@lukejcr) I kicked off my week by returning to my old school, Huntington School, for their annual Question Time.
It was great to engage with students and hear their questions on the issues that matter most to them, from potholes to the climate crisis.
It’s inspiring to see the next generation of leaders so passionate about shaping our future! [Source]
