Labour and Tory MPs want new drilling in the North Sea whilst we face a growing climate, energy and cost of living crisis. Approving new oil and gas licenses won’t take a penny off our bills and will fuel the climate crisis. New oil & gas is not the answer. Clean green energy is.

Thousands left without water in the middle of winter in the UK. And those same people are now facing a massive bill hike. Privatised water is a scam. I've written to the Prime Minister asking why he won't end this rip off and bring failing South East Water into public hands.

Starmer and Farage both drape themselves in flags but once again it's really clear where their loyalty really is. It's Trump first. They will always be on the side of the super rich and powerful - no matter how heinous the crime. This is not patriotism. It's subservience.
