🐟🌲💧- Our environment is under attack!
The government is getting rid of the biodiversity net gain promises they previously made. That means precious habitats like our chalk streams in Hampshire are all under threat.
This is not acceptable. We have to protect our environment.

🚨 Today Al Pinkerton will introduce a 10-minute bill that calls for a UK-EU customs union.

It's time for Labour MP's to back our bill and help turbocharge our economy.

The Tories and Reform are plotting a shady pact before the election.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

While Farage is off in America talking Britain down, we gave Reform HQ a rebrand.

We hope it will make him feel more at home.

I'm boycotting the state banquet to send a message to both Donald Trump and Keir Starmer that they cannot close their eyes and wish away the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

Donald Trump can stop this catastrophe in Gaza and get the hostages released.

This week I wrote to the Home Secretary and the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation to challenge the Terrorism Act 2000. Peaceful protest is a fundamental pillar of any liberal democracy, and this legislation is denying people that right.

Great Britain wastes £180,000 every hour switching off wind turbines and overpaying gas generators to switch on. That's £634,826,847 so far this year! wastedwind.energy

From my energy supplier. Happy to hear the contrary view, but on the surface, this sounds nuts.
Wasted Wind
Britain wastes millions a day switching off wind turbines. See how much has been wasted today, and in 2025.
