He introduced a generation to music from all over the world. That's a great legacy ❤️

More drilling in the North Sea would be a catastrophic mistake for Labour - locking us into high bills, and betraying their climate ambitions. If they’re serious about energy security, the answer is to double down instead on renewables and efficiency - and lower bills for good

Rightwing narrative fuelling false belief UK public oppose net zero, study finds Reform, Tory and some media rhetoric runs contrary to poll showing far more voters for net zero than against it Political elites are out of step with the public appetite for net zero, according to analysis that identifies rightwing media narratives as fuelling a false backlash against climate action.
