He really is setting out his stall as the more death, disease and serious injury candidate isn't he.

Track cycling update: I'm torn between the Canadian track racing kit and the Belgians'. The Japanese team helmet is a thing of beauty.

2/3 Ah, the 'we just mine it, someone else burns it,' defence. I think I see where this is going.

3/3 And even if someone does burn it and put 8.2m tonnes of CO2 into the atmos, it's just replacing coal that absolutely, definitely, 100% spit on my hand won't get burned in another country's steel mills? I'm beggining to see how you got this past Michale Gove.

I love his "Air Space" plan to solve the housing crisis by letting everyone build a loft conversion. "Because you can't just keep building homes" which is news to a constituency that's built about 20,000 on Nine Elms. lavender-hill.uk/2024/06/22/…

This is an example for media too. Hire a housing correspondent who’s known social housing or homelessness. Hire a health corr who’s worked in health. Hire an education corr who’s been a teacher. Don’t assume PPE/ posh school teaches anything about the nation we report on.

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

Uxbridge and South Rice Lake is my new favourite ITV auto caption constituency.

Counterpoint: the environment is an existential issue, but a Green Party that opposes things like HS2, GM and building homes on the greenbelt are not a serious answer.
