We've secured £12 billion of investment from @RWE_AG, alongside £1bn public money, for two major UK offshore wind farms off the coast of Norfolk - powering millions of homes and supporting thousands of jobs. This is another vote of confidence in British homegrown, clean energy.

Investment in offshore wind and clean power is creating quality jobs and rebuilding industry, while delivering the clean power we need to lower bills and reach net zero. As the world gathers at COP31, Britain is leading from the front as a renewable energy powerhouse, turning the fight against climate change into a brighter future for British companies, industrial communities, and future generations.

Ahead of #COP31, I spoke to @BBCJustinR for the @BBCPanorama climate special. The climate crisis is here. We are seeing its impact on communities here in Britain and across the world. And at a time when some are trying to divide us, this is the moment to come together, not pull apart. Because we know the solutions. We can break our dependence on fossil fuels, bring down bills and cut emissions. But no country can do this alone. This is the time for multilateralism and collective action.

As #COP31 begins, my message is clear: no country can tackle the climate crisis alone. Britain will work with countries around the world to tackle the climate crisis, while leading a transition at home that brings down bills, creates jobs and protects our communities.

Today we remember all those who have given their lives for our freedom. I’m honoured to be at the Cenotaph to remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice and those who continue to protect us today.

Energy is an everyday essential. No one should be ripped off by rogue companies or see bills rise by price shocks thousands of miles away. This is a first downpayment on fixing a broken system, protecting consumers from unfair costs & putting the public back in control.

New laws to help cut bills, protect consumers, crack down on rogue companies and put more power in the hands of communities. Today we’re introducing the Energy Independence Bill, a fairer energy system that works for people. Read the full story: gov.uk/government/news/energ…

The only way Britain can take control of its bills and bring them down for good, is to reform our energy system so we are less exposed to global energy shocks. Last week's Budget was about giving people breathing space with the cost of living, while we continue driving towards cheap, clean power - with affordability as my number one priority. My article in the @DailyMirror 👇🏿 mirror.co.uk/money/budget-en…

The energy transition has to work for our communities. We know what happened in the 80s when economic transition was done badly and was done to communities. That won't happen under this government. The transition will be led by the workers as we work with unions like @GMB_union. Earlier in the week, I spoke at the @ClimateAPPG reception on A Worker-led Transition.

Devolution is the key to unlocking growth in every postcode. Today's budget announced plans to devolve new powers and funding to Mayors around the country including London. A welcome step to unlocking investment needed in communities like Peckham.

Today’s Budget is a really positive and significant day for London. At its heart is a new devolution revolution. My statement:

The statement welcomes a new devolution settlement for London, support for cross-Channel rail services at Stratford International, and new powers and funding to help unlock major infrastructure projects, jobs, housing and economic growth across the capital.

40 years of failed energy policies have driven us to this point. If we want a system that's fair, affordable & works for the British people - we need public control. Today's Budget is about giving people breathing space while we fix the broken system & put the public in control ⬇️

Today, this Labour government is abolishing standing charges on gas bills. @JohnHealey_MP and I are making energy bills fairer. Tackling affordability is my first priority and I'll keep doing all I can to protect people from unaffordable bills.
