Mandelson isnāt an aberration, but the relational logic of the machine working as intended. Moral conviction has been devalued in both our people and our arguments. This is the inevitable result. We must start saying what for too long we have been ready to think.

Just spoken powerfully in HoC to something that I've felt deeply throughout my years working in and around politics - far, far too often absolute lack of character or moral deficiency is excused in the name of either alleged talent or personal loyalty.

New nuclear has a key role to play in delivering the transformative economic potential of the AI revolution while reaching Net Zero. SMRs should be able to go where demand is greatest so that growth is shared across every part of the country.

We wrote to Rachel Reeves urging her to make this ambitious decision. Leaving behind the failed Tory fiscal framework and boldly investing in Britainās future is crucial to growing our economy. Weāre proud to back a Labour Chancellor bringing growth back to the UK š

We're urging the Chancellor to adopt a fiscal framework that recognises the value of investment at the coming Budget. It is time to break with the failure of the past and invest in Britain's future.
