Reaching net zero by 2050 ‘cheaper for UK than one fossil fuel crisis’ Climate change committee finds move to renewable energy would also bring health, economic and security benefits Achieving the UK’s net zero target by 2050 will cost less than a single oil shock and bring health and economic benefits while insulating the country against future costs, the government’s climate advisers have forecast. Eliminating the UK’s reliance on fossil fuels by adopting renewable energy and green technologies, such as electric vehicles and heat pumps, would be the best and most cost-effective option for the future economy, the Climate Change Committee (CCC) found.

Call me elitist, but I’m tired of illiterate people having so much power. I think democracy needs a qualification test.

The right to a trial by jury is fundamental. There are a range of improvements put forward by legal professionals working in our courts to improve efficiency of our system without the need to restrict access to jury trial. That’s why I’ll vote against threat to jury trial today.

I appreciate that. You’ve done your bit for the elderly today.

At my age I can’t see the subtitles.

Sad times for almost blind Dan.

Labour have as expected decided that The SNP are responsible for the war in Iran😂😂😂😂

You might be right.

They probably invested a lot to ensure that one was and use the cheaper stuff when they’re not to fussed about collateral damage like civilians and children.

I’m not sure a targeted strike compares to an uprising of a people claiming their freedom.

You don’t speak for all of us! I like VAR because it annoys people.

I thought he used to smart. What happened to him?

I don’t know why I look, I have no idea how he just cracks on with things when it’s always like this, but any glance at the replies Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk gets on Facebook would make any decent person shudder.

I don’t agree with all he’s done but the abuse he receives is utterly vile.

I don’t often agree wholeheartedly with you but I second this post

The old adage the worst Labour government is better than the best Tory government has little objective truth anymore.

All I want is to work for a fair wage, have fair rents, a bit of spending money and not trash the environment. Starmer calls me “extreme”. Not for me, not for millions either.

Some of it may be protest, however, much is genuine distain for Starmer’s Labour. People on the left, like I, who don’t want anything truly radical (however they and the media frame it) will not and never will again vote for a Labour Party ran by its faction on the right.

Excellent work. A system calibrated to rehabilitate in most cases, especially for the young, will always yield better results than the reactionaries will using their Victorian methods.

I think it’s right for them/us to urge Iran not to attack hotels, for example, which I understand they have and other civilian targets in the region.

You just don’t expect to hear a Sky News expert say “America has beef with Iran”. Eloquent reporting guys 🤣

I like The Guardian, but it does publish some utter shite sometimes.

To be fair in many parts it is.

It’ll be toothless skinheads that get Reform almost there but the wax jacket wearing Barbour crew in certain shires that will push them over the line.
