I want Britain’s energy wealth to spark a new wave of clean power. Our decision to approve Jackdaw alongside the new Energy Wealth Fund means we invest in green transition and benefit from our existing natural resources.

New: former PM Liz Truss will publish her second book next Monday “Bank Job” “Timed to coincide with the Burnham Government’s first Budget, it lifts the lid on what really happened around the Mini-Budget in 2022, challenging the establishment narrative and examining in particular the role of the unaccountable Bank of England”

It was an honour to accompany the Prime Minister to Aberfan today where we laid a wreath, visited the memorial garden and met with survivors. It was a deeply moving experience, and a reminder of the unparalleled strength and resilience of the community.

My statement on the deadline for bids for the E1 settlement tender ⬇️
STATEMENT ON E1 SETTLEMENT EXPANSION 19 October 2026 The decision by the Israeli Government to open tenders for settlements in E1 is a direct threat to the prospect of a two-state solution and has been widely condemned by the international community. Today is the deadline for bids for the E1 settlement tender. I want to be very clear with those considering engaging in the tendering process: we have created new powers allowing us to sanction individuals and companies involved in the construction of illegal settlements such as E1. We urge businesses and individuals not to proceed with bids for E1 construction tenders. They should be aware of legal and reputational consequences, including the risk of involving themselves in serious breaches of international law. FULL STATEMENT CONTINUES ON GOV.UK

It's so frustrating when the actions of a few spoil your journey. Our new campaign reminds passengers to use headphones on trains, and highlights the penalties. And local leaders get new powers to tackle music, vaping and littering on buses. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm89…

People playing loud music on buses could face £100 fine

Antisocial behaviour on buses in England could lead to fines while a new campaign is also being launched for trains. A national campaign asking rail passengers "share the carriage, not the noise" is...
