I know statistics are poorly understood and are misused. But facts matter
Between the 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2021 Census *every* ethnic group in the UK has become *less* geographically segregated and *all* groups, majority and minorities, are more likely to interact with people not like them

This really needs to be said and understood. What makes it worse, if possible, is that it is not coming out of any genuine crisis or emergency. It is a deliberate attempt to whip up anger and grievance in order to capitalise upon it & in Jenrick's case purely to advance his leadership ambitions.

Get onboard? Keir is already on it.
We don't use coal any more. Gas is reducing. We are moving towards biofuel as the backup rather than gas/oil. Huge investment in solar, wind, other renewables and storage, more small scale nuclear.
It's insane to suggest that Labour are not on this already.

Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity
Developing countries lead the historic clean energy charge but the US and EU rely more on fossil fuels than before, a think tank study shows.
As renewables overtake coal as the world's largest source of electricity, what did we get from the Tory conference?
- repeal the Climate Change Act
- scrap 2050 net-zero target
- remove renewable energy subsidies
- maximise oil and gas extraction from the North Sea
They are so out of touch!

Apparently, this was "nothing to do with skin colour". Robert Jenrick just likes "mixed communities". Which is why he has also criticised very white neighbourhoods or towns and villages up and down the UK, umm... <checks notes> never.
