Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 25/07/2026The right wing media is having a frenzy on the topic of North Sea oil and gas. Just a reminder that nothing has been announced yet, and how wrong the media was on the chancellor. I hope they are wrong this time too. 040

Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I like the Green Party, but Ed Miliband has not approved any fossil fuels. He knows like we do that security is gained by renewables and upgrading the grid. At this point this sounds like another story that may not come to pass. 🤷🏻♂️ 240

Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 29/06/2026After listening to Andy Burnham’s speech, it made me realise that if he really does what he says about local areas getting the power to decide what they need, if you vote say… a green council in, they will have more power to do what you voted for. Which is how it should be. 020
Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 29/06/2026I do believe you would benefit from watching what he actually said rather than reading an article. I’m going to wait for the details and actions before I support or discount what he said. 210

Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Ed #Miliband is 100% correct when he says the only energy security from world events is home grown energy like renewables. Any UK party that thinks otherwise must have fossil fuel interests or funding. Don’t vote for them! #BBCLauraK 061
Sky Apperley @skymook.bsky.social · 07/03/2026Any UK party that doesn’t fully back renewable energy as a security shield from world events like this, must have fossil fuel interests / backers. Don’t vote for them. I’d like to see even more renewables coming online ASAP. 071
