After experiencing a decade of the worst pay squeeze since the Napoleonic wars, imagine @RishiSunak would come out and say:

"Employers can't find workers?

...PAY THEM MORE..."

If @HMT is serious about reaching full employment w/ well paid jobs- this is an approach to emulate.

UK has a dirty little secret 😲

Its finance sector is responsible for nearly 2 x the UK's annual carbon emissions

But the government is giving finance a free pass

NEW: @ActOnClimate100 issues statement on @Total's climate strategy. The verdict: it's not enough.

In their March assessment the oil & gas major failed all but one of their nine metrics 🧐

And that was before the @IEA scenarios... Our reaction ⬇️

Great to see @Snowball_IM featured in this Special Report from the Times.

I feel exactly the same! Keep dancing @CFigueres :)

[Tom Rivett-Carnac @tomcarnac]

Thank you, United States! The election of @JoeBiden is huge not just for America, but for the world. Here’s how it landed with @CFigueres to see that the US is on it’s way back into the #ParisAgreement #ElectionDay @UNFCCC

[Kelly Clark @K_L_Clark21]

Go Biden!

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Today, the Trump Administration officially left the Paris Climate Agreement. And in exactly 77 days, a Biden Administration will rejoin it.

[The Hoarse Whisperer @TheRealHoarse]

Taylor Swift has 87.3 million followers on Twitter - the exact same number as Trump.

This is the first campaign ad she has ever given permission to use her music.
