This is total nonsense and has no regard for any actual policy content it’s just a vibe. Meanwhile I’m yet to see a single decarbonisation policy from Polanski that isn’t wealth taxes but apparently that’s acceptable?

My issue with it was i kept feeling there was a really amazing show just under the surface that kept getting covered bt bonkers set-pieces.

Likewise, three great main characters who i wanted to know more but never got the chance to.

Was still a fun enjoyable watch tho

I also think Pete from big brother made a huge contribution to this for the millenials.

The penguins have their revenge.

Its usually one whole bottle of Nivea.

Local power starts here in Hackney! Our Hackney Mayor @carolinewoodley.bsky.social welcomed Ed Miliband to Hoxton Hall tonight to launch Labour’s #localpowerplan with Sadiq Khan &
community energy groups. @coopparty.party.coop and @lcefuk.bsky.social have done us proud in making this happen.

So the Epstein scandal is about politics? Silly me for thinking it’s about the mass abuse of women and girls | Marina Hyde Obsessing over individual players and political chaos leaves less time to focus on the misogyny. And that’s for the best, isn’t it guys, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Britain’s biggest ever investment in community energy ⚡️🎉

Our £1bn local power plan will:

🤝 Ensure local areas can own the benefits of the green transition
🇪🇺 Build on models that already work across Europe
📈 Unlock the equivalent of up to three (!) nuclear plants of energy

Another huge announcement today from government giving people more control over their energy bills and energy security.

£1bn to support community groups and local authorities own and invest in the clean energy they need.

Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has announced today a record £1bn invest in community-owned energy. This is the start of an energy ownership revolution which will see communities and community assets benefit from renewables in their areas.

📺 Watch him explain.

Only if you also claim to be the perry shark.

Great equivalent of "they'd ruin another couple".

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.

Sat reading this excellent feature whilst sat on the floor at a packed Euston station where every train has been delayed for at least three hours.

Why do these spoiled man-babies never want to produce proper mundane infrastructure that would improve peoples lives immeasurably?

i love european olympics opening ceremonies. the second the ioc names a european host city the prime minister calls the culture minister into their office and says "find me your strangest homosexuals. give each of them a period of our great nation's history, a kilo of cocaine, and Ten Million Euros"

Some great insight from MPs at this roundtable, on how they can be local champions for the Warm Homes Plan but also highlighting some of the challenges of delivery.

Thanks to @martinmccluskey.bsky.social for setting out a clear vision for the plan (and fielding some pretty technical questions!)

'For the energy transition to work, it must deliver good union jobs, not just clean power' - LabourList As Labour accelerates offshore wind, it must ensure the transition creates good, unionised jobs in the communities that need them most — or risk losing public support for clean energy.

Was pleased to join the launch of Climate Jobs UK this week, calling, in the words of Gary Smith, for the just transition to be a jobs transition.

The introduction of a Fair Work Charter for the next round of off-shore wind is a strong step on this journey.

Never forget Epstein’s little helpers – the powerful men who knew about his crimes, and helped him out anyway | Marina Hyde I’m sorry, but this is not just a political scandal. Time to refocus on the horrific mistreatment of women and girls, and the role of these ghouls, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Followed today by this one.

Poor Prince Andrew is ‘appalled’ by Epstein. Let that be an end to it | Marina Hyde Perhaps a royal wedding for Princess Beatrice might offer a welcome distraction for a man-of-the-world under unfair scrutiny, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

With all the horrendous epstein news this week I've been reminded of Marina Hyde's scream of rage column from nearly seven years ago. Fantastic writing on a hideous subject.

Funny how dreams die.

Fantastic stat.

Having a real Mandela moment esistential crisis tonight as i clearly remember dancing to Arctic Monkeys's Sun Goes Down all the way through my uni years at Manchesters 5th Ave.

Yet being reminded today that it came out in the January of my 3rd year of uni.

Yes. And lets throw paloma in with the civvies too just to see what happens.

'A national project to turn the tide': Government unveils £15bn Warm Homes Plan Long-awaited plan aims to help millions of families to cut energy bills by installing solar panels, batteries, heat pumps, and insulation

This will get massively overshadowed today and as ever the devil is in the detail, but is should be one of the best things Labour has done. It has the potential to improve the lives and finances of millions of people.

Spot on. Genuinely believe this could be this Parliament's totemic policy. There's so much good stuff in there that is set to have real long-lasting impact.

Theres loads of stuff in there to sink teeth into but this morning its good to celebrate an ambitious government setting clear policy as part of a clean energy mission that tackles cost of living head on.

Extremely excited by the sheer scale of ambition from today's Warm Homes Plan. It has the potential to be a defining policy moment of this parliment: from immediate impact on fuel poverty, medium-term growth for British industry and jobs, to the long-term reduction in carbon emissions. (1/2)

Today's proposed reforms have the potential to be part of that legacy by improving waterways - and the nature that relies on them - across the country.
