Stephen, this thread is very important and very succinctly written. I'm going to make it my pinned tweet. Thank you. Nothing (from a UK perspective is more important and urgent).

2/ @Keir_Starmer's £100k clothes, glasses, hospitality, Taylor Swift tickets etc.

- £100k v £22bn
- Starmer's shallowness v the viability & credibility of how the UK is going to tackle the greatest existential the world has ever faced.

What a test for UK's best commentators!

1/ I say @StarkClimate @ELPinchbeck @MLiebreich @AukeHoekstra @EdConwaySky @Peston I notice that @GeorgeMonbiot has made a compelling case against @UKLabour's carbon capture & storage programme. I would expect you'd be even more vigilant about then the press have about...

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

When you dig into the hidden detail of the government's carbon capture and storage programme, the sheer scale of fiscal and environmental irresponsibility is hard to comprehend. We could be on the hook for £50 billion, with zero benefit. My column. 🧵 https://t.co/bXDZkX3cYK

@Davejackson9876 @RichardJMurphy You don't see parallels with Cameron's support for Aston Villa (or was it West Ham?) and Gordon Brown's support for the Arctic Monkeys?

This is an outstanding message beautifully communicated. Deserves an award.

"The fossil fuel industries have been lobbying this government, lobbying politics for a long time."

@AdrianRamsay criticises Labour's decision to 'invest' in unproven carbon capture and storage following intense lobbying by oil and gas companies.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

The only way to keep this platform usable since its emuskulation is to block, block and block again. I very seldom blocked people before Musk. Now I block around 20 a day. It feels quite satisfying, like shooting zombies in a computer game. 🧵

@FisherAndrew79 You stood your ground very well under severe provocation. I don't know how you kept your cool but you did and your assertive but cool fact based answers won the day. There's something about your style which is reassuring and unlikely to terrify Daily Mail readers.

[Suffolk Jason @SuffolkJason]

@FisherAndrew79 PS Andrew. Am I right to think that this £22bn fossil fuel subsidy is as corrupt as it seems to be? There are at least some demanding questions to be asked (see below)- unless I'm missing something and/or naive. I would appreciate your views- https://t.co/tmZVY4wZ3e

[Suffolk Jason @SuffolkJason]

I say @Ed_Miliband @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP @UKLabour if you are to retain any credibility wrt to the £22bn subsidies for fossil fuels for carbon storage, you must directly respond to the issues raised in this well documented thread-cc @GeorgeMonbiot @ChrisGPackham @IanDunt.

[Suffolk Jason @SuffolkJason]

@EnergyUKcomms Emma, nobody seems to be willing to engage in a frank discussion about this. Where are the answers to these questions? We need an open/frank debate- https://t.co/tmZVY4wZ3e

[Mark Todd @MarkTodd_pol]

I fear George is correct from my 20 years in the energy industry hydrogen, nuclear and carbon capture are the expensive outside bets. Solar, wind, electricity storage, rewilding and energy efficiency the much cheaper inside bets.

UK Gov is pledging £billions of public money to the fossil fuel industry for unproven industrial CO₂ removal. But here's how nature can do the job, with an array of co-benefits, at far lower cost. A short🧵 1/ https://t.co/lJfeXfoWGc

A solution to this £22bn carbon capture row.
The proposal, inherited from the Conservatives, exempts #CCS plans from normal rules requiring that they will lower UK emissions.
What's there to worry about if #CCS works?
Labour: please subject the plans to proper scrutiny.

Very sad news. Just heard due to ill health #JohnnieWalker is retiring after 58 years in the business. His last #SoundsOfThe70s #Radio2 show will be in three weeks on 27th October. We’ll miss you Johnnie. Thanks for everything. @BBCRadio2 @piratejw

[Friends of the Earth Scotland 🌎 @FoEScot]

The UK Govt is giving £2️⃣2️⃣billion of public money to carbon capture.

This technology is being used by the oil industry to greenwash its plans to keep on drilling & burning.

50 years of failure is being rewarded with more handouts while real climate solutions miss out.
