The onshore wind ban has been in place for 9 years. We've been in government for 72 hours, we've lifted it. That's the pace we're going to move at.

The UK’s runaway growth. 🧵🪡 1 of 2 Wow this chart from the FT. Look at the UK’s rapid ascent after 2010, how we rise and rise and rise, while the others slip down and down.

Rishi Sunak and Akshata Murty's fortune has increased by £121m, meanwhile Rishi Sunak paid £0.5m tax. A tax rate of 0.4%, while your tax rate is 37% 92.5x higher. These are the benefit thieves.

News Group are claiming they are entirely innocent of the things I had accused the Sun of doing - phone hacking, unlawful information gathering, landline tapping, the burglary of my flat and office, the bugging of my car, the illegal blagging of medical records, lies, perjury and the destruction of evidence.

This is not due to a lack of care from NHS staff. There are no strikes today. This is 13 years of the Conservative government. Our hearts break for everyone who has suffered and continues to suffer as a result.

🚨 BREAKING: Britain’s biggest gas supplier @equinor just announced £29 BILLION in profits for 2023. This Norway state-owned oil giant will effectively be handed a £3 billion tax break to open the disastrous Rosebank oil field in the UK North Sea. We're just being ripped off!

In Iceland, Kwasi Kwarteng would be in his second year of prison for insider trading. Never forget that he met with multiple high profile hedge funders the night before his disastrous mini-budget, while steadfastly refusing to meet with the Office for Budget Responsibility.
