Great explainer on Chagos surrender deal from @RobertJenrick.
Starmer's Chagos Deal is a betrayal of Britain. Chagos has been British since 1814. Mauritius’s most respected leader said their claim is "ridiculous.". We & 🇺🇸 have a vital military base there. Why an earth give control to an ally of China?. This insanity must be stopped.

District heating schemes (Heat networks) will be increasingly important in future years to help to bring down bills & improve our energy security. Hot water just arrives at your door, similar to the way gas does now, and you pay for what you use.

To be clear, we are not going to make smart meters compulsory. Voluntary uptake is excellent, has reached over 60% and we are currently installing 85,000 per week. Consumers are increasingly being persuaded of the benefits.

We have decided not to progress work on a hydrogen town pilot until after 2026 decisions on the role of hydrogen for heating. Heat pumps and heat networks will be the main route to cutting household emissions for the foreseeable future.
