Let's be crystal clear here. We are not paying £10m extra due to an unexpected heatwave.
We are paying this because successive governments have failed to prepare for the impact of climate breakdown.

"If he’s not willing to nationalise the water companies, then that’s already giving us an indication that Andy Burnham and the Labour Government will be siding with profit rather than people.”

For everyone who says countries don't need to act because a court hasn't found Israel guilty of genocide, here's Francesca Albanese explaining the requirements of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in under 20 seconds.
An irritating feature of the present moment is people telling us we're alarmists about a climate crisis they only heard about 15 years ago, when the media realised it could no longer be hidden.
I was campaigning on the climate crisis in the 1980s. Scientists knew about it in the 1920s.
The UN has found that Israel deliberately targeted maternity wards and neonatal units as a direct strategy.
Please RT this until the UK Govt stops supporting the GENOCIDAL state of Israel & doing it in our name.
Thank you.
Every time I spoke on the BBC and uttered the word genocide, the host rushed to dismiss its very legitimacy. Each one of them has blood on their hands.
It's officially the hottest June day ever.
We know who is to blame. Fossil fuel firms. The billionaire media. Weak politicians.
We know what we must do. Rapid decarbonisation & adaptation for a healthier, wealthier country safe for future generations.
My family and I are exposed to all sorts of threats, restrictions and hateful rethoric.
Yet we would say and do everything we have said and done against the genocide, its ideologues and profiteers, again and again.
Forever proud to stand on the side of Justice.
So will BBC presenters now attach this context every time Gaza is discussed? Will they stop interrupting guests for using the word genocide?
Of course not. That would help inform the audience.
The BBC's priority is managing the narrative, not clarifying it.
This report is haunting even for someone who has documented the most horrific aspects of this genocide - which too many world leaders pretend not to see.
I commend the Commission of Inquiry for its effort to bring about accountability and make the truth accessible.
South East Water are already begging customers not to use water.
That’s what happened when your corporate greed gets the better of you and you simply haven’t invested in enough equipment to meet demand.
Another water company that should be back in public control, today.
Life threatening 40 C temps expected for UK
Funny how they always show pictures of beaches as if this deadly heat is something to enjoy
And never show the elderly and others sitting in suffocating homes just trying to survive https://t.co/MKdJ5bdtgW
This was a famous French weather forecast in 2014 trying to alert people to what France would be like in 2050 because of climate change
Only 12 years on and most of us are already hotter - my town 43 today and not the 34 predicted👇
