Devastating report from Tony Blair Institute on Ed Milibandโs net zero nonsense.
His claim that net zero will create hundreds of thousands of green industrial jobs vastly overstated.
Investing in green technology unlikely to reverse the long-term decline of British industry.
Ministers must not โover-state the job opportunities from green manufacturingโ.
A โmistakeโ to let net zero dominate the Governmentโs entire economic strategy as it would deliver only a meagre boost to growth.
What the report doesnโt say โ but I do โ is that we could easily increase defence spending to 3%+ of GDP by switching resources from net zero to a military build up.

Rachel Reeves is tanking the economy
Yvette Cooper is destroying our security
Angela Rayner is crushing businesses
Ed Miliband is killing jobs
David Lammy is a global embarrassment
Keir Starmer is wrecking the country!
Labour are a total disaster.
We need a general election.

Poor deluded Reeves. Sheโs convinced the state generates growth. All she has to do is splurge on an airport or two. No, dear, itโs the private sector whose vim and optimism you chloroformed with your budget.

If the first thing you do after waiting for 14 years to be in government, is finding a way to force children out of schools and to force pensioners to freeze in the winter
Your party deserves to disappear

This GPโs explanation of the psychological harm caused by unnecessarily forcing children to move schools mid-academic year by imposing tax on independent school from Jan 25 is well worth reading โฌ๏ธ

Nobody denies that state education needs more investment. But, the notion that this needs to be done at the expense of other children's education is plain wrong. ALL children deserve a first-rate education, not just those that @UKLabour want you to believe are more worthy.

Repeatedly, @bphillipsonMP has told the public that the private school-VAT policy will increase funding for state schools and provide much needed resources for the sector.
Here's Paul Johnson, director of @UKLabour's beloved IFS, stating categorically that this claim is false โฌ๏ธ

Grand National day.
For us that live and breathe horse racing, this day can be an emotional roller coaster. Excitement, nerves, elation, upset, frustration, relief.
In amongst all of it, don't forget one key truth. The annual naysayers will fire their shots at our sport in pursuit of cheap publicity again, but by tomorrow morning the vast majority of them will have moved on to something else until next year.
We'll still be here, caring for and loving our horses and our sport.
Take a breath. Direct them to the facts (horsepwr.co.uk). Don't let them wind you up.
We've got this.
