Britain has been exposed to volatile international energy markets for far too long.
That is why Labour is establishing a new Energy Wealth Fund which will reinvest tax revenues from North Sea oil and gas into renewable and low carbon projects to support the clean energy transition and bring bills down for good.
Labour has granted approval for homegrown gas to be produced.
Recent events in the Middle East have triggered global energy shocks and pushed up bills for families across the country. At a time of global instability, homegrown energy can be a source of national strength.
The project will start to supply gas to British homes and businesses from as early as the end of this month, helping heat millions of homes and protecting hundreds of jobs.

No one should have to risk their health or, in the worst cases, their lives at the hands of cosmetic cowboys.
People deserve proper care not to be exploited as a way to make quick money.
Our new rules will ensure high-risk procedures are only carried out by properly trained professionals, protect under-18s and hold rogue providers to account.

Today, I stand with Aberfan. I stand with the people of Aberfan, and I stand with the community as we honour the memory of all those that were lost.

NEW: Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh has confirmed homegrown gas production at Jackdaw will go ahead.
In the middle of an energy crisis, homegrown gas has a role to play in our energy security as we transition to net zero.
Gas produced at Jackdaw is expected to be supplied to British homes and businesses from the end of this month - increasing domestic gas production by around 6% at its peak.
Labour will also invest North Sea revenues in renewables and other low-carbon projects.

I want Britain’s energy wealth to spark a new wave of clean power.
Our decision to approve Jackdaw alongside the new Energy Wealth Fund means we invest in green transition and benefit from our existing natural resources.

🚨BREAKING: Andy Burnham has announced that drivers will get new rights to challenge unfair private parking charges.
This includes a guaranteed 5 minutes for drivers to decide whether to park and 10 minutes to leave once their session ends, and the right to have charges cancelled on appeal for issues they can’t control.

Nigel Farage’s excuses for his £5m ‘gift’ from an overseas crypto-billionaire never stacked up. Now his senior aides have been caught admitting it privately.
Reform are up to their neck in sleaze and scandal. It’s time for Farage to fess up about what the money is actually for.

Parking should be straightforward, not another everyday hassle.
Today we’re putting the brakes on rip-off parking charges - meaning drivers get a fairer deal, protections from being unfairly charged, and confidence that private parking providers are held to a higher standard.
It's yet another step forward in this government’s plan to take the stress out of everyday life and ease the pressure on people's pockets.
The campaign will remind people of the law against playing loud music, those who refuse to stop could be removed from the train or fined up to £1,000.
