A short film about why the dirtiest and most antisocial economic interests dominate our politics. I believe it's the key to understanding the terrible state we're in.

We’ve just experienced the hottest June on record.

Instead of taking urgent action to slash emissions, Rishi Sunak is on the verge of approving the biggest undeveloped oil field in the UK.

This is what happens when oil giants shape government policy.

Today the Guardian is launching Cost of the crown, an investigation into royal wealth and financing. Here is why we think the UK monarch urgently requires this kind of scrutiny: https://t.co/GGghEIYWQA

UK is Europe’s most gas addicted country

Heat pumps installed:

🇫🇷 3.1m
🇳🇴 1.3m
🇬🇧 280k

If UK had installed as many heat pumps as Estonia, domestic gas prices would be 34% lower than last year

Gas imports 19% lower

💚 Time for a retrofit revolution!

At the same time, conventional car sales have fallen by a quarter.

Gas stoves emit only a tiny share of the greenhouse gases that warm the #climate. Why then have they assumed such a heated role in climate politics? Baker Institute Rice faculty scholar @cohan_ds explains in an article for @ConversationUS: https://t.co/lEvvsKgF3O

Conservative governments could have spent £5bn getting our homes insulated. Instead, Liz Truss intends to hand £150bn in public money to the fossil fuel companies, while leaving the problem unaddressed. Fiscal responsibility? My left foot. https://t.co/3u23GlZMAD

They bought news websites. They spied on reporters. They hired PI’s to dig dirt on pro-solar mayors. They spent hundreds of thousands of dollars promoting #ghostcandidates And that’s just in Florida. Our investigation tracked them to at least eight states. https://t.co/t7iRmeLwDV
