Bonkers Reform plan to: - whack up your energy bills by making renewables and pylons cost more (costs that are passed straight onto bills). - leave us with hugely volatile energy prices. Good for Putin, terrible for us.

Since the 20mph default speed limit the data shows in the first year there have been 26% fewer crashes and a 28% fall in casualties Councils need to take care about which roads revert to 30mph. This says it all: youtu.be/k2tOye9DKdQ?...

The Prime minister hits back at Elon Musk ‘Those that are spreading lies and misinformation…are not interested in victims’

Those spreading lies and misinformation are not interested in the victims, they are interested in themselves. The priority is the action that has been absent for the past decade, not faux outrage from those who failed to act
