It was good to welcome deputy prime minister David Lammy to Camden! Postal votes are just starting to land so vote @camdenlabour.bsky.social for a party that delivers on social and environmental justice 🌹

I'm shocked, *shocked*, that once again the Greens are opposing renewables

Record number of homes in Great Britain turn to green energy as fuel prices soar Iran war drives demand for solar panels, heat pumps and EVs, with energy bills expected to rise 18% from July

Heat pump orders up 2x in a month. Solar panel inquiries up 250%. EV leases up 85%.

The Iran crisis has made energy security feel personal.
I understand why: I have solar panels, a heat pump & EV on a flexible tariff. When gas prices spike, my bills barely move.

Good to be out on the doors in Primrose Hill for Dan, Lauren and Suleiman!

Vote @camdenlabour.bsky.social on 7 May (or sooner if you have a postal vote) for more housing investment, more trees and more parks! 🌳

I suspect she's now glued to the Google Reviews as everyone gives her 1 star.

Moldova has formally quit the Commonwealth of Independent States. President Maia Sandu signed decrees denouncing the Charter and core treaties, published in Monitorul Oficial and now in force.

SUVs are making Britain’s potholes worse, say scientists Engineers link reduced lifespan of roads to shift to heavier cars, some bought to navigate damaged surfaces

If you are literally tearing up the roads, you should pay for their repair! Although of course you shouldn't do so in the first place ...

Good to be out and about in Primrose Hill and Kentish Town today with our excellent @camdenlabour.bsky.social candidates. On 7 May please vote Labour for more trees, 800 new electric vehicle charging points, 500 new cycle hangars and 5 new parks! 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

In Camden, the Green Party has opposed ALL council flat building and has called for a "pause" on delivery. Recently, they campaigned against a block of 100% council flats being built on top of a disused car park...

Always a huge gap between what the Greens say, and what they actually do.

Britain breaks solar energy record twice as UK’s biggest solar farm gets approval Record high set on Monday and raised on Tuesday, with 14.4GW of electricity generated in sunny spring weather

Clean, safe, cheap, renewable energy that you don't have to fight deadly wars or destroy the environment to get.

Good for wildlife, too, when done properly.

Good to speak to voters in Highgate ward with the excellent local @camdenlabour.bsky.social councillors Camron and Anna. We delivered a newsletter showing all the excellent work they have done for the ward – vote Labour 7 May! 🌹

We’ll deliver a £2 million cost of living fund to help those struggling with their bills

UK must feed and fuel itself — but Labour would rather attack wealth The policies of Sir Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves push us to rely on imports just as war, inflation and global instability demand self-reliance

Billionaire vacuum cleaner salesman Dyson ever more pathetic in his attempts to dress up his objections to paying tax.

Now would be a really good time for a national emergency programme of enabling walking, cycling and public transport ... #FossilFuels #IranWar 🚶🏾‍♀️🚲🚌

For the avoidance of doubt, those who are arguing for “drill baby drill” really don’t get the seriousness of the situation. We should not be falling back on technologies that damage us, our economy and our future, but rather be embracing increasingly cheap and reliable home grown renewable energy.

We’re proud to introduce Suleiman Osman, Lauren Keiles, and Dan Corby as your local labour candidates for Primrose Hill 🌹

Montpelier & Leighton Crescent Gardens Improvement Projects We’re looking to reimagine Montpelier Gardens & Leighton Crescent Gardens to be friendlier and more welcoming places

Today has made it THE year for 🦓 simple zebra crossings. In 2026 we have had:
1. Welsh government update their TSRGD to allow them
2. Transport for London commit to trialling them (as part of Vision Zero Action Plan 2)
3. Today UK gov said they will permit simpler zebra crossings when updating TSRGD

Thanks!

More great work from Camden Council @adamdkharrison.bsky.social with improvements at the southern end of Monmouth St at Seven Dials. Popular location for pedestrians now with no through traffic, high quality pavement and new trees.

This is pure Alan Partridge.

'A crucial buffer against expensive gas': Britain's wind farms set 'world leading' generation record Offshore and onshore wind now the UK's largest source of electricity, helping to curb the nation's exposure to expensive and volatile fossil fuel imports

This crisis would be a lot worse were it not for renewables and clean technologies. www.businessgreen.com/news/4527607...

As Bible Society retracts the false data and its claims about a "quiet revival", take a look back at what @humanists.uk team were saying even a year ago when the obviously flawed results came out. Completely vindicated tho we felt we were going mad at the time when media swallowed the falsehoods!

‘Smokeless’ fuels produce more ultrafine particles that get embedded in lungs, study shows The tiny size of the particles means they can become deposited deep in people’s lungs, causing a health risk
