I commend the ‘energy’ Labour are bringing to this desperate problem, that is supplying affordable U.K. based clean energy to households and businesses. Such challenges as generation, supply chains, delivery networks, commercial practices, skills shortages both technical and commercial. All this will require folk to work more effectively and collaboratively, not just put more hours in. My experience of the U.K. private sector leadership suggests a 20th century attitude to solving business problems and exploiting opportunities we don’t lack education and intellect, but ambition. Our private sector leaders are mainly accountants more interested in reducing risk and cutting costs. Training and development is regards as overhead, and seen as a perk, except for mandated or politically expedient training ( e.g health and safety and DEI). We have a generation coming into the workplace who struggle with collaboration, lacking fundamental social skills AND in my opinion across the board we have a woeful lack of basic business skills including, negotiation, leading teams, understanding basic finance, recruitment, top talent development. These issues are the Achilles heels of the Labours Mission Driven Government. Without using world class resources to increase personal productivity, their mission will fail.
@@996o0o966 Where did I say anything about increasing bills? I’m querying the fact they are telling us they would get lower. Unfortunately it all gets a bit hazy when it comes to exactly how that will happen. Ultimately my point is I’ve heard it all before, this is just the usual routine of how they sell whatever it is they are selling, it’s exactly what happened with water privatisation and look at the mess that is in.
With the uk being such a small footprint and the power houses like China, India and America blasting through fossil fuels and sourcing energy on the cheap all we are doing is increasing costs and taxes for the British people.
@@mitchSwimsJust because others aren't doing what's necessary doesn't mean we shouldn't. We should be leading on sustainability, inventing and producing new tech and exporting it to those countries. Investment in sustainable home-grown electricity also means we're not beholden to the fossil fuel producers (Putin et al) and can lower our fuel bills. Wish there was more talk about tidal though as an island nation, surely there's more scope for that rather than just wind and solar
I am f'ing crying here again- everytime I listen to this Labour Government I am filled with hope again. Building, investing, our own security, well-paid jobs- the UK is crying our for these things.
I’m still none the wiser as to exactly how bills will be lower . It seems to me this is just PFI redux. We hand over public cash , derisk the private sector investment and they take all the profits.
We’re allocating resources to sectors that we find more profitable and important to fund. That’s all this really is. It’s a kind of direct subsidy. Think of it more like a tax break vs. Something like how we tax tobacco to discourage its use.
At last we're on the path towards being a renewable energy superpower. I'm sure a lot of people take the word superpower with a bucket of salt, but what it means is this: Once we have enough generation and energy storage capacity to get us through the worst weeks of winter when it's freezing and the sun isn't shining and the wind isn't blowing, just think how much excess capacity we'll have on a hot, sunny, windy day in summer. We'll have so much we'll have to come up with ways to use it - sell it abroad, make hydrogen/ammonia, desalinate water - the list is endless.
I'm absolutely loving the Karma and and the irony of Farage and his racist, bigoted attitude and enablers, giving the Labour party the strongest mandate for decades, strong enough to make the changes that they are so against!
The problem with making steel is the cost of energy is too, high so yes the steel industry is finished and there isn't anything the government can do about it, unless of course for some reason the cost of energy magically comes down.
Energy bills in the immediacy i understood that this could take years to achieve…. Will labour tax the energy company’s ….or consider in the short term especially winter coming the cost of energy …
These politicians have revived £ from Green Tech that provides no environmental benefit (wind/solar) & is only financially viable without Govt subsidies
All money the royal family earn, we get back, minus their fixed amount per year. If the royal estate make more money, we get 100% of that increase as their income is fixed by law. It's actually a really clever strategy to keep as much money for taxpayers as possible
Not convinced by this at all. Where is the infrastructure for such a company . I have come to the conclusion that this is just a company that sells energy to us.
As far as I know it's a plan to jointly invest in energy projects with private companies. That makes it less expensive for both sides. Like shared ownership of a house.

As far as renewables are concerned, again, they do not have the capability nor the CAPEX to do this work. Even if they did it would take tens of years to complete such an endeavor . This is why I am skeptical. There is a reason why the oil and gas companies exist. To do this work.
@@anonymoushuman8962 If the goal is to generate more of our energy from sustainable sources, then it's cheaper for the UK to build grid-connected wind and solar farms if we go halves with private companies that already have the skilled workforce.
Cutting taxes and investing in nothing has worked a treat the last 10 years and every other time its been tried. People like you swallow the magic money tree line without ever wondering WHY there is no money. You vote Tory and then the rich get richer and we get told "sorry wallets empty".
