Hes accepted he was rude but insists his comments made in 2019 and reported in the Guardian Newspaper that the mp should be short and she made him want to hate all black women had nothing to do with her gender or skin colour. She has now put out a statement, which says it is frightening, i live in hackney and do not drive so i find myself at weekends popping on a bus or walk in places more than most mps. Im a single woman and it makes you wonder anyway. To hear someone talking like this is worrying. For all of my career as an mp i thought it important not to live in a bubble but to mix and mingle with ordinary people. She goes on, the fact two mps have been murdered in the recent years makes a more alarming. Im not a member of the Parliamentary Labour Party but remain a member of the party itself, so she says she is hoping for public support from keir starmer. That was Diane Abbotts statement and reaction to the comments. The uk government is committed to building a new generation of gas fired Power Stations which it says will help to prevent the risk of blackouts. The new plans will replace stations due to expire. Environmentalists say its a backward step. Our Climate Editor told us replacements dont come as a surprise. It editor told us replacements dont come as a surprise. Come as a surprise.

It was unexpected the uk would replace come as a surprise. It was unexpected the uk would replace its Ageing Gas Fleet as they reach the end of their lives, and we were surprised to see an announcement the government was doing it. Theyve confirmed these will not be with fitted storage are standard, so they wont capture the c02 fitted storage are standard, so they wont capture the Co2 Emissions to prevent climate change. There are some environmentalists saying that will make it difficult to achieve their net zero ambitions, something their net zero ambitions, something the government has pushed back on, saying they are doing well cutting carbon and in intent to be the targets they set, and this will not be a bump in the roads in terms of cutting emissions.

It only delivers energy when the sun is shining or when blowing, and has been recognised the need to be powered from other sources to fill in the gaps, at the moment that is predominantly done by gas power and obviously the Ageing Gas Fleet, as it gets older, gas stations need to be replaced. The government says they will replace them with better capable ones to meet those peaks and troughs in demand, so they will operate for a single hour to fill in behind renewables. They say they will change the law so they can be retrofitted to burn hydrogen, or maybe with Carbon Capture and storage in the future. Its interesting speaking to the labour party, they accept they would adopt a similar policy, introducing unabated, without Carbon Capture storage, new gas plants as the existing fleet ages. They accept there will be a limited use only of hydrogen and carbon capturing storage, but the point both parties would make is increasingly as we move to the renewable future, less and less gas will be needed. It would just fill in the gaps when we dont have enough wind or solar and therefore become a small part of the energy mix.

Todays turning out to be fairly cloudy and also wet, the heaviest rain across england and wales, and that will be quite slow to clear. And as we go through this week, although its turning milder, there will be spells of rain. Now, if we take a look at the rainfall accumulation chart, you can see the key is here. Weve got a lot of dark blues in the chart, meaning 20 to 30 millimetres of rainfall. But locally weve got the bright greens, which is even more than that, and its falling an already saturated ground, exacerbating the risk of localised flooding. So a lot of cloud on the cards today. For most of us its been producing some rain. But even as the rain pushes steadily eastwards behind it will have a legacy of cloud, murky, dank conditions, hill and coastal mist and fog. The brightest skies with some sunshine will be across the far north of scotland. Temperature wise, seven in lerwick to 13 in belfast, birmingham, london and plymouth. Now as we go through the evening and overnight, we start off on a largely dry note, but weve got two Weather Fronts. Heres the first one pushing eastwards, taking some rain. Heres the second one moving south eastwards, Bringing Heavier Rain Across Scotland and Northern Ireland, eventually into the far north of northern england. The wind picking up behind it, but a very mild night ahead of it. So tomorrow we start off with this rain again, slowly sinking southwards. There will still be a fair bit of cloud ahead of it, but well see some breaks in the cloud tomorrow with some sunshine. Whereas for scotland and Northern Ireland its going to be windy with sunshine and showers, gales across the far north, temperatures 8 to 15 degrees. But in the sunshine in the south east, we might see a little bit higher than that. Wednesday night into thursday, our Weather Front retreats northwards once again taking its rain with it. Theres another one coming in from the atlantic as well. So thursday is looking fairly cloudy, wet as the rain moves northwards. Showery rain coming in from the west pushing eastwards. These are the temperatures eight to about 16 Degrees North to south. Again, in any breaks in that cloud, we might see a little bit higher. And thats illustrated here. Weve got this South Westerly Wind coming in across much of the country, but note how weve got more of a north westerly in the far north. So here temperatures will dip temporarily. So the outlook remains unsettled with rain or showers. Live from jerusalem.
