@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social & @rory-stewart.bsky.social unfortunately couldn’t make the National Emergency Briefing.

Would they consider having @mikebernerslee.bsky.social on #Leading?🙏

Mike chaired the NEB and sets out the threats - and the choices ahead - with exceptional clarity.

Clips from Professor @mikebernerslee.bsky.social's powerful opening & closing statements at the National Emergency Briefing.

"We are asking for a WW2 level of leadership. Leadership, as if the survival of our society depends on it... because it does."

A new record - on 5 December wind power produced enough electricity for 3/4 of UK homes

At 23.8GW it meant that even during winter peak demand, it was still providing nearly half the country's power needs

Still a way to go though....
