What happens when 65% of UK electricity comes from renewables? Customers on @OctopusEnergy Agile tariff GET PAID upto 20p/kWh to take it off national grid’s hands… (renewables are incredible. We need to build more, digitise the grid & electrify everything.)
The fossil fuel lobby want to add £118 on bills to pay for hydrogen you won't use. And if we did use it to heat homes it's the financial & physics equivalent of flushing your toilet with champagne. Looks like @grantshapps is looking for a better hydrogen path than this boondoggle

Another 5% increase on our wonderful Enfield cycle lanes 🚲 in August. Slowly but surely upwards they go. And also not bad bearing in mind some of those temperatures in August!
Everyone has a job with meaning; everyone has a zero carbon home; everyone has a park at the end of their road; everyone has opportunities to be part of their community; everyone has sustainable food on the table; everyone's kids tucked up safe at night. My kind of socialism.

"In a quality city, a person should be able to live their entire life without a car, and not feel deprived."

If I were advising the UK Prime Minister, I would tell them to make a televised statement to the nation tonight (or very soon) along the following lines: 1. We are in an energy crisis. This crisis is having a dreadful effect on everyone’s finances. And it is going to get worse.
