Farage and Jenrick to speak on pensions triple lock as calls grow to sack Reform’s housing spokesperson – UK politics live

Keir Starmer says Nigel Farage should ‘do the decent thing’ after Simon Dudley’s ‘shameful’ comments about Grenfell Tower

The Conservatives have pledged to fully axe the carbon tax if they get back into power, the Press Association reports. PA says:

The party had already proposed removing the tax as it applies to electricity generation, but now say they would go further and fully scrap the carbon tax regime, the cost of which they say is burdening British industry.

But Labour said such a move would be “wrong” and “hammer” industry.

The death of our parents, partners, children, siblings grandparents and grandchildren in the most horrific circumstances was gross negligent manslaughter, NOT fate.

Dudley and Reform must apologise to the Grenfell Next of Kin families.
