an extra 2500 acres of pointless PV? @edmilliband01 needs to learn that PV is not the answer - we need farmland to produce food rather than a tiny fraction of the claimed PV capacity #bbcqt

Anyone who thinks a rush to Net Zero is a problem doesn't understand the potential - we just need to back the real savings rather than spend money unwisely. Done properly ESG and Net Zero will cut costs. #bbcqt

fingerprinting biometrics should speed up border controls. Last time in China the scanner took 2 seconds to say 'we've seen you before - carry on' passport was then stamped without the need to do more than confirm it was my photo #bbcbreakfast

I stopped buying smokey bacon crisps when I saw the packets said 'suitable for vegetarians' #dragonsden we need sustainable food sources.

it would be better to have an NHS access card and need to show it every time we use the NHS - a de facto ID card with a purpose.

a crisp sommelier?! #saturdaykitchen A large truck can deliver 26 tonnes of potatoes...but only 1.3 tonnes of crisps along with vast amounts of single use packaging. We must increase the nutritional density of food deliveries.

The current government don't understand they are delivering austerity by a different method - one that will be hard to stop. #bbcquestiontime

There is no need for Net Zero to cost £5bn - spending that would mean doing it the wrong way! Cash and carbon are 2 sides of same coin. Done properly heading for Net Zero increases margin by cutting costs some of us can show are unnecessary. #bbcquestiontime

Google/Gmail need taking to task about promoting fake websites - they really don't care at the moment #bbcmorninglive

when you add the outrageous amount of unnecessary packaging of these pouches to the appalling lack of nutritional value it really makes you wonder how they can be allowed to sell them! #panorama #ultraprocessedfoods

dog recognition is definitely possible - we know the Chinese company that launched pig-face recognition on the i-phone in 2018 #dragonsden

Most emissions come from fertiliser....which is why we need to get livestock back on the land as part of regenerative agriculture....and a large part of why plant based diets are not sustainable. @BBCJustinR #bbc1

Daisy is correct but the only way to achieve that is to prevent the margin hoovers (MS, Apple, Amazon, Google, Uber, Ebay etc) taking their profits out of the country tax free #bbcqt this is what Trump is likely to trigger and find his MAGA backfires.

Camilla Tominey talks a lot of sense. The problem is the Blair/Brown years allowed the top earners to take a far higher multiple of lower pay than ever before. #bbcqt

mushroom snacks - a nice idea but too low a margin for supermarket sales and far too much single use packaging #dragonsden

rooftop PV is nowhere near as good as suggested - a school should have the agritech equivalent and save more energy while Growing an Education with STEM. PV would be better as a wall cladding @energygovuk #r4today

John is so right. It is incredible that farmers can claim subsidies while growing sugar that is such a burden on the @NHS #bbcqt

PV is largely worthless - rooftops should host our automated greenhouses that can save far more energy than PV can harness. We need to reduce energy demand #bbcqt

Removing blocks on onshore wind was totally right but land based PV is madness #bbcqt

The idea we should give up o Net Zero is lunacy - we need to understand it gives the opportunity to rid ourselves of decades of wasteful practices - when done properly the move to Net Zero increases profit. #bbclaurak
