The BBC legitimately regulates its presenters’ external activities. And for good reason, they like us to avoid stepping into live arguments.
Thanks to the thousands of folks who’ve listened. The episodes will remain online.. a great introduction to heat pumps.

Sad news about the Happy Heat Pump Podcast.
Sorry to say, that after about 20 episodes, we’re drawing it to a close at the request of the BBC which worries it may be seen as steering into areas of public controversy.

Do you really want us to opine like that John? And would you be happy to pay a licence fee if BBC staff opined in a way you find objectionable? If your answers are 1. Yes and 2. No, what you are really saying is that the BBC should not exist in its current form

With so much unfolding in London today, there'll be a special PM programme on Radio 4 this evening, at 5 pm.
If all goes to schedule, we expect to hear what has been happening inside the security summit when we go to air.

Fair points Ants.. It's a good debate. But it is a valid debate. It concerns claims of the kind that we must cut emissions to stop flooding here. Sadly, if we are 1 or 2 per cent of global total CO2 emissions, our reductions will obviously have only a 1 or 2 per cent effect on our climate change
