Constituents have written to me about the sudden increase in the cost of heating oil, for example from 55p per litre to 132p, with minimum order quantities also increasing from 500 litres to 900 litres! Yesterday the Chancellor came to the Commons to talk about the rising energy costs. 1/4

Rumours in the media today that Rachel Reeves is set to announce that Fuel Duty will not rise by 5p as planned. This is welcome, but drivers and businesses need clarity, not speculation. I've been urging the Government to scrap the planned 5p rise and hope something is announced imminently! 1/2

It will be with huge concern and anger that the public learn today that the promised £10m Hinckley Day Case Unit, for which planning was permitted last July, is in jeopardy and risks being cancelled. A 🧵

Do you think we should have a Minister for Men and Boys? I called for one in PMQs in December, and have secured a Westminster Hall debate on it next week (Wednesday 25th Feb, 2:30 - 4 pm). As I said in my PMQ, this isn't about one 'or' the other. It's about women 'and' men.

As MPs debate the Courts Bill and the restriction of jury trials again today, I'm reminded of this bombshell statement from the Minister in the last debate... The Courts Minister admitted it wasn't about backlogs - but ideology. Listen 👇

‼️ There are no local elections in Leicestershire tomorrow‼️ With all the talk of local elections this week - and what effect the results could have nationally - many people have been asking about local elections and what's happening in Scotland and Wales. I explain more here 👇

Today was the official launch of the @conservatives local election campaign. Come with me to learn about it! #politics #localelections #behindthescene

We need nuclear, renewables, and oil and gas to secure our energy for decades to come. ‼️ The UK should be using more of our own reserves, which includes supporting domestic oil and gas production in the North Sea. 3/3

Yesterday the Prime Minister confirmed that he's delaying the planned fuel duty hike, saying, "We are backing drivers by extending the freeze in fuel duty for the rest of the year." @Conservatives and I have been calling for this since the start of the Iran conflict. 1/2

There are three key strands to energy and climate: security, affordability and environmental impacts. I believe that the sooner we move to an energy self-sufficient country, the better. Last year before the current spike in oil and gas, I called for the UK to use more of our own reserves👇

Cheers! This Throwback Thursday, we're looking back to this fun moment – when Dr. Jane had some bourbon with Stephen Colbert. Known for her work with wild chimpanzees, and her landmark research that forever changed science, Dr. Jane also knew how to have fun. Video: CBS

While Drax claims it no longer sources from old growth deferral areas, the majority of British Columbia’s old growth forests fall outside these areas. Will the Government advise Ofgem to exclude these forests from subsidies?

Heard what happened happened with Doug Ford at the Home Depot… I just wish the Premier had the same sense of urgency to actually chase down the Minister of Labour as to what is happening with the Skills Development Fund.

The SAVE Act would be the most restrictive federal voting bill to ever be passed by Congress. Lawmakers should be protecting the freedom to vote — not restricting it. Watch: bit.ly/4dfPQrx

It’s pathetic that Trump—and Fetterman, his Republican echoing mouthpiece—are using an alleged assassination attempt to justify hiding in a ballroom. Claiming that opposing this charade endangers the president is a joke. Focus on more security, not more ballrooms!🤦🏿‍♂️

Telegram channels report explosions and drones in Volgograd.

Trump wants a “Golden Dome” to shield the US from ballistic missile attacks, with costs projected to reach $3.6 trillion. But research has proved US technology is not ready to make that "Dome" fully efficient. The cost for Trump’s Dome would thus be —again— a waste of our taxpayer money.

In late October, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries announced his support for Zohran Mamdani, nearly four months after he became the Democratic nominee for New York mayor. I pulled together a mashup of the 17 weeks that Jeffries and Schumer spent refusing to endorse him.
