Tell chancellor Rachel Reeves to stop funding carbon capture and storage Dear Rachel Reeves, In your statement to the House of Commons in July last year, you announced a £22billion black hole in public finances. Three months later, the government pledged £22billion of pub...

Ahead of the budget next week, we're calling on #RachelReeves to #StopFundingCCS. The £22billion black hole in public finances could be filled by taking back the £22billion of public money being handed to #HyNetNW and #NetZeroTeesside.

Certain people like to point fingers at China with their new coal power stations.

But what UK is doing with its new ‘carbon capture’ gas power stations, like #NetZeroTeesside, is as bad for the climate.

There’s a simple reason why👇

FOUR ways Labour is making bad decisions on #climate :
- aviation #Heathrow
- new oil/gas #Rosebank
- carbon capture #NetZeroTeesside

Arguments similar on each - new cumulative CO2 emissions

#Starmer set to make the wrong decision on each

Andy McDonald's face on a graphic which reads: Net Zero Teesside, delivered by the Labour government, is the single biggest investment in Teesside in our history. It is worth £4bn, will create 3,000 construction jobs and 1,000 well paid permanent jobs and will make our area leaders in the industries of the future. The importance of this announcement cannot be overstated. Just as we have led the industries of the past with iron and steel, we now look forward with optimism to our future as a global leader in clean technologies. To see this signed, sealed and delivered after just five months of a Labour government, five months in which we've seen £2bn investment in hydrogen technologies in the Tees Valley, £500m to save the Hitachi plant - safeguarding jobs and the supply chain and a life extension of Hartlepool Power Station protecting more jobs and securing clean energy, is incredible. Labour is delivering for Teesside.

Teesside Public Meeting

MYSTERY. Why would #BritainRemade, a small think tank, go to great expense to run a public meeting promoting #NetZeroTeesside? It's a new fossil fuel power station plus iffy carbon capture technology - and it's got the nod already.
