Well done Nicky for organising our doorknocking and leafletting campaign for the recent local elections. Pleased you could accept the FoE Earthmovers award in person on behalf of Hillingdon Friends of the Earth. Well deserved! #climatecrisis #FoE

The government’s case for H'row expansion relies heavily on technologies that are not yet viable at scale. Even by 2040, most flights from H'row would still depend on fossil fuels. Meanwhile, industry continues to lobby for weaker decarbonisation targets. #Climate #NoThirdRunway

I met with Hillingdon Friends of the Earth as they presented me with their community petition calling for new rules to ensure businesses have to monitor and report on possible human rights abuses and environmental harms in supply chains. Pleased to support their important campaign.

We're calling for a new law to protect forests & stop timber linked to deforestation & habitat destruction entering UK supply chains! Thanks to @DannyBeales for meeting with us, receiving our petition,postcards & signing the decision makers pledge in support of a law #PlanetOverProfit

Air pollution is a public health issue. Expansion risks 1) increased exposure to NO₂, PM2.5 and U Fine Particulates, 2) Greater harm to already affected local communities 3) Long-term damage to public health. Those living closest Heathrow would be most affected. #Health #AirPollution #NoThirdRunway

Government needs to answer how it will protect UK interests if Heathrow expansion goes ahead. Will there be limits on shareholder payouts? What safeguards are in place to protect taxpayers? These go to the heart of public accountability. #WhoOwnsHeathrow #NoThirdRunway

Heathrow isn’t really a “UK airport” anymore. It’s 100% owned by overseas investors & sovereign wealth funds from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, China, and Singapore. So decisions about Heathrow are driven by global finance & not in the UK public interest. #Infrastructure #No3rdRunway
