1.3GW onshore wind from a standing start is great, a new record. Only 2 of those are in england, after the effective ban was removed you'll expect that pipeline to grow rapidly over the next few rounds - still capable of coming online before 2030 (unlike offshore which takes longer to build)
BREAKING: UK govt auction secures 4.9GW new solar at £65/MWh and 1.3GW new onshore wind at £72/MWh, 13% and 21% below the price cap respectively.

All due online by 2029.

Jimmy Lai has spent more than 1800 days in solitary confinement.

He’s a 78 year old man with multiple health problems.

This is an appalling abuse of human rights and Lai should be released by the Hong Kong authorities. He and his loved ones deserve an end to this cruel ordeal.

Nat was an extraordinary campaigner who died of terminal cancer last week.

His friend Sophie Blake promised to carry on his fight for dignity in death - and today launched a petition to stop the assisted dying Bill being blocked or delayed.

Hey @thetimes.com what is ’racism’ - surely depicting the Obamas as monkeys is just old fashioned racism?

Tonight, Labour MPs voted to scrap the two child limit – a move that puts us on course to drive the biggest reduction of child poverty in a single Parliament.

The Tories and Reform UK voted against it.

Don’t let anyone tell you voting Labour doesn’t make a difference 🌹

I'm absolutely devastated to learn that Nat Dye has passed away. He was an amazing campaigner for assisted dying. This coming Wednesday I'm going to a variety show he organised in London and I hope that even though he didn't quite make it, he was proud of that and everything else he had achieved.

Off London's Tottenham Court Road, Bayley Street shows that cities change. Originally a signal controlled junction from a one-way street, contraflow cycling was added and then the junction filtered with a cycle track. Today the cycling is still there, but the area is now a little square.

Leaving NATO at a time like this would be absolutely nuts.
EXC: Zack Polanski tells us Britain should consider closing US military bases, leave Nato and denuclearise, as he begins to flesh out the Greens’ foreign policy.

Also spells out to @pippacrerar.bsky.social and me his red lines in any coalition talks to come.

[1/6] A reminder: Europe has cards to use against the US. Lots of them.

To cite some examples:

- Tighten screws on US digital giants (taxes, fines, even bans)
- Export taxes disrupting US supply chains eg pharma
- Exclude US firms from European procurement, inc defence
