21 Sept. 2018: Wholesale gas was 80p a therm. Today, nearly 5 years on, wholesale gas is 76p a therm. Why are gas bills 3 times higher today? Ofgem are meeting soon to pick new prices. Please help out as much pressure on them as possible to cut energy bills. End the rip off.

⚡ HUGE NEWS! ⚡ MPs are uniting under the #CEBill banner! It’s the bold, new, environmental legislation we need—to lock the science into law—and secure a liveable future. 📺 Watch @_OliviaBlake reintroduce the Bill at 12:30—today—just after #PMQs on parliamentlive.tv
COMPETITION TIME!!! To be in with a chance of winning this lovely Androgynoceras Ammonite from Charmouth, all you have to do is RETWEET this tweet and make sure you’re FOLLOWING me! Winner announced this Sunday evening around 7pm. Good luck 🤞
My drain became blocked recently - i was charged £160 to unblock it (for 1hr work). A junior doctor unblocking your coronary artery during a heart attack and 10-15 yrs training will get £28.

Today a doctor on the picket line said to me: “MPs have had a 42.7% increase since 2008, Junior Doctors have had a 25% decrease since 2010. So let’s not have MPs saying that pay restoration for doctors is unaffordable. We have families to feed as well.” A fair point indeed.
Carly has been using her allotment to feed people struggling with the cost of living. Last night someone broke in and salted the land to stop her growing. Her go fund me: gofundme.com/f/a-meal-on-me…
.@DougChapmanSNP I've responded to @DefraGovUK sandeel consultation to support a ban on industrial trawling for this important fish in English waters. Please lend your support and help save our globally threatened seabirds who rely on sandeels to survive. #SaveOurSeabirds

How many people out there are giving wildflowers a chance by leaving areas of their gardens uncut this year? Please RT if you are offering a lifeline to pollinators like bees, butterflies, moths, hoverflies and bats by mowing less 🐝
The state of biodiversity in the world is cause of great concern. Understandably, - but I can't help but feel optimistically happy at the idea that within a few years, I'll have my degree (perhaps more) and can l help improve biodiversity in ways I am not currently able to

Best day yet as a 1st year undergraduate. Finally out in the field sampling invertebrates - using the invertebrates present as an indicator of the health of the river. Particularly interesting after the last episode of #WildIsles
Defra release badger cull figures for 2022, 33,627 badgers were shot last Autumn, bringing the total number of badgers killed under licence since 2013 to over 210,000. Almost 90% of those slaughtered in 2022 were killed by so-called ‘controlled shooting’ This is national disgrace…
📢Numbers haven't gone up enough. Swifts need 18k more signatures. Swifts are on their way home, flying since they left our walls last August. Many will return to their homes to find them blocked off. Help them. Sign #TheFeatherSpeech ➡️petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6267… 📹@josephinewell19
Government's new plan will barely make a dent in the amount of raw sewage being released into our waters...
SHOCKING FACT: Raw Sewage was DUMPED onto England's most popular beaches for a total of 8,500 HOURS last year - far longer than Liz Truss was PM. Britain's rivers are suffocating in filth.

A thing I teach in my public science engagement workshops (that I'm sharing now to subtweet someone): If you're funny, it's ok to be funny when talking to the public. Professional need not mean stuffy dry and boring. If you're not funny, don't try to be funny with the public.
10 days from now Ofgem announce the new price cap for energy bills. Wholesale gas is almost 10 times cheaper today than it was last August. Bills must come down. Put pressure on Ofgem to cut prices & end the energy rip off.

Just doing some prep for my Parliamentary debate this week on Greedflation. Here's one key fact: In 2022 the profits of the largest 350 UK companies were *89%* higher than 2019 levels. It's firms hiking prices for profit, not workers' wages, that is helping to fuel inflation.
@JudeeJudes well good for you, you obviously feel very pleased with yourself- this is a terrible generalisation
I dont understand why people arent rioting about mortgage rates? How can people cope when a £400 pcm mortgage rockets to £1,600?

Police being used to silence peaceful protests isn’t just for @JustStop_Oil, they’re coming for anti-road protestors now.
Unbelievably, Tory MP Daniel Kawczynski felt THREATENED & called the police on this peaceful protest against the NW Rd that he wants built 💰 Destruction of the beautiful Severn Valley, pollution of the local water supply & £100s of millions we don't have. @RoadToRuinShrop
@Feargal_Sharkey @IanHQuayle @Lynn_GT @NickFerrariLBC Enforcement of existing refs is essential. Give the regulators TEETH and hold them to account. Jail sentences for even minor breaches of protocols and longer sentences for Chairmen not in full compliance with high environmental standards. No grey areas, no voluntary codes.
@Feargal_Sharkey @Lynn_GT @NickFerrariLBC A far better solution would be to have mandatory limits for sewage release, tapering to zero in 10 years. Exceeding the limit in any year would result in a legally enforceable ban on distributing share dividends and bonuses for top management and directors.
Not only do people in Scotland pay no tuition fees for University (as it should be for us all) but now it looks like children of asylum seekers in Scotland will also be eligible for fee-free university. That’s British Values!!!
