1.3GW onshore wind from a standing start is great, a new record. Only 2 of those are in england, after the effective ban was removed you'll expect that pipeline to grow rapidly over the next few rounds - still capable of coming online before 2030 (unlike offshore which takes longer to build)

Tomorrow - we launch the biggest investment in community energy in British history.

The Local Power Plan will build wealth and power in communities across the country - driven by communities, for communities, supported by Great British Energy.

Jimmy Lai has spent more than 1800 days in solitary confinement.

He’s a 78 year old man with multiple health problems.

This is an appalling abuse of human rights and Lai should be released by the Hong Kong authorities. He and his loved ones deserve an end to this cruel ordeal.

Bright-eyed at day two of Labour LGA conference to discuss how we win the politics of air quality.

How do we enpower the voices of those cllrs across the country who are delivering on this issue for their communities.

Nat was an extraordinary campaigner who died of terminal cancer last week.

His friend Sophie Blake promised to carry on his fight for dignity in death - and today launched a petition to stop the assisted dying Bill being blocked or delayed.

Hey @thetimes.com what is ’racism’ - surely depicting the Obamas as monkeys is just old fashioned racism?

Ian McKellen performs “The Strangers’ Case” speech from “Sir Thomas More” on Colbert.

Tonight, Labour MPs voted to scrap the two child limit – a move that puts us on course to drive the biggest reduction of child poverty in a single Parliament.

The Tories and Reform UK voted against it.

Don’t let anyone tell you voting Labour doesn’t make a difference 🌹

Good to be out in South Hampstead ward today supporting the excellent @izzylenga.bsky.social, Arun Kumar and Francesca Reynolds! Lots of positive feedback about council services as well as local issues picked up and shared with the candidates 🌹

Thanks Rob. This may be a blocked drain – I've asked the highways team to look into it.

A picture of Nat Dye, a white man with glasses and a beard, standing at a podium at the 2023 Labour Party conference.

I'm absolutely devastated to learn that Nat Dye has passed away. He was an amazing campaigner for assisted dying. This coming Wednesday I'm going to a variety show he organised in London and I hope that even though he didn't quite make it, he was proud of that and everything else he had achieved.

The view along a 2-way grey block paved cycle track with an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing in the foreground with rain gardens on both sides of the cycle track with seating at the end.

Off London's Tottenham Court Road, Bayley Street shows that cities change. Originally a signal controlled junction from a one-way street, contraflow cycling was added and then the junction filtered with a cycle track. Today the cycling is still there, but the area is now a little square.

Leaving NATO at a time like this would be absolutely nuts.

The construction of Cycleway 13 along Clerkenwell Road has started in Camden - the plan is that this continues so that it connects up with C13 at Old Street.

- Export taxes disrupting US supply chains eg pharma

Justin Webb is wrong about everything.

every provocateur who wangs on all the time about Britain being “broken” should be sent to an actual failed state or autocracy for a month as a learning experience, there’s no shortage of them
