Today the PM announced our new world-leading target to cut UK emissions by 81%. There is no national security or economic security without climate security. That's why we have announced this target today. To protect future generations, deliver jobs and drive economic growth.

Work is under way to decarbonise the Council's buildings. We're replacing gas boilers with heat pumps in the Civic Offices & Hexagon Theatre, our Bennet Road site is becoming a net-zero depot & funding has been secured to investigate decarbonisation of the Town Hall. #rdguk

Rachel Reeves confirms that councils will be able to keep all the money raised through Right to Buy sales. A big step that councils have long been asking for to help them build more. Long overdue. #Budget2024

The sheer volume of coverage given to stories about landlords, shareholders and people sending their kids to private schools, possibly having to pay just a little bit more in tax, tells you everything you need to know about what the priorities of the British press really are

Laura Kuenssberg is paid £325,000 a year Chris Mason is paid £265,000 Sue Gray was paid £170,000 Sir Keir Starmer is paid £167,000 I'm not convinced that BBC political journalists should earn twice as much as the Prime Minister or his Chief of Staff

Our state schools need teachers more than private schools need embossed stationery. Our children need mental health support more than private schools need new pools. Our students need careers advice more than private schools need AstroTurf pitches. https://t.co/Wc55CmVuge
