You clearly weren't listening, Kwasi. We want no NEW oil and gas. There are over 200 oil & gas fields producing in the North Sea. We don’t need more. The @IEA have said repeatedly that we cannot exploit new oil & gas anywhere if we want to avoid catastrophic climate change.

Absurd and dangerous for @Keir_Starmer to claim we 'can't afford' to tax the very wealthiest. Even moderate taxes on the super-rich would raise billions for desperately needed public investment in our communities and the just transition. We can't afford not to.

BREAKING 🔥 activists reclaim the #TEDcountdown stage from Shell's CEO. @Shell is actively pursuing new oil & gas projects. They are the problem, not the solution. Watch @GNDRising campaigner & #StopCambo activist Lauren's speech & spread the word 📢 ➡️

As the Government abandons huge parts of society, it’s time to unite in opposition to their plans. At conference, we need a bold plan for how the Labour party will spend the £28bn they've already committed, to make the Green New Deal a reality, as @NadiaWhittomeMP says.

Caroline Lucas is absolutely right here. Young people aren't impressed by any of this.

PM said “my daughter is climate champion in our house”. So what does she think of climate-wrecking #Rosebank oil field, & handing £3.75bn of taxpayer cash to oil giant @Equinor to develop it? Can he look her in the eye & say he's giving young people a liveable future? My #PMQ 👇

"Our disruption was not for the people in that room or the leadership hopefuls. It was for people all around the country. "Whether through joining the picket line or joining movements like ours - it's ordinary people who will create a new political reality." Together ✊

🚨This Government don't care about the climate crisis.🚨 New oil and gas licences won't make a difference to UK energy security or our bills. We need to support people to insulate our homes, get off oil and gas and invest in cheaper renewable energy!

This is gross. Our future is not for sale. Labour should be listening to ordinary people, not climate deniers and oil executives.

Why are you repeating a lie @RishiSunak ? Here’s Alok Sharma admitting in November last year that only £4bn of the funding in the 10 point plan is new money.
