Miliband's dash for Net Zero lands millions of families with yet another energy bills hike
Millions of families are to be hit with another rise in energy bills this winter because of Ed Miliband's dash for Net Zero.
Energy regulator Ofgem said government 'policy costs' were a key driver in the latest rise, which takes the price cap to £1,758 a year. Bills will rise even though wholesale energy prices have fallen by four per cent.
The cap is £190 higher than when Labour came to power last year, despite Mr Miliband's pre-election pledge to cut bills by £300.
The situation is so embarrassing for the Government that Rachel Reeves is now considering action in next week's Budget to remove the cost of things like connecting wind farms to the grid from energy bills and pay for them through general taxation.
But critics tonight called on Keir Starmer to 'rein in' Mr Miliband and bring a halt to the remorseless rise in UK energy costs, among the highest in the developed world.

The BBC has just given Donald Trump more fuel. Apologies roll off the production line.
The BBC has turned the insincere apology into an industrial process.
Its latest offering arrived when presenter, Rajini Vaidyanathan, disrespectfully referred several times to Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales as “Catherine Middleton” — her maiden name — while the written statement demoted her further to “Catherine, Princess of Wales”, a style reserved for divorcees.
After nearly fifteen years of marriage and a public life defined by selfless duty, this was no oversight. It was a calculated slight from a broadcaster that has never bothered to hide its disdain for the monarchy as a traditional pillar of British society.

Racism in the Animal Kingdom:
Is an innate important defence, protect and survival part of nature.
A thread of cases of racism between regional variants of the same species of animal. It seems that racism is as, if not more, rife in the animal kingdom than it is between human beings. Is racism really such an innate part of nature?

Shamima Begum 'should be allowed UK return' after six year controversy, review says.
I don't think she or the others should be allowed back, what do you think?
© BBC/Joshua Baker
A shocking inquiry into Britain's counter-terrorism policy has determined that ISIS bride Shamima Begum should be allowed to return to the UK.
The British woman is presently residing in a Syrian detention facility, having left home to join Islamic State in 2015.
This conclusion emerged following a three-year investigation conducted by the Independent Commission on UK Counterterrorism.
The committee stated that Begum,26, and other British nationals held in Syria should be brought back to the UK.

'Most deadly' strain of virus sweeps Britain - everything we know
Patients with the virus often report a higher fever, but in some cases, it can be deadly.
Have you had your Flu jab this season?
Doctor explains how to prepare for the flu season
Data from Australia indicates that the H3N2 flu strain has caused the country's worst influenza season on record, a trend that health experts warn could be mirrored in Britain as winter approaches. In Japan, the same strain has led to widespread school closures as infections reach epidemic levels, with thousands of people requiring hospital treatment.
Health officials in Britain have already warned that flu has arrived around a month earlier than usual, raising concerns that too few eligible people are taking up the offer of a free NHS flu vaccine. The latest figures reveal that two in five care home residents are still unvaccinated, prompting renewed calls for vulnerable groups to come forward for their jabs. The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) has warned H3N2 "can kill" and has called on parents to give their children the flu vaccine nasal spray.

Peter Andrews departure from Anything
I see @PeterAndrews1, or whatever he is called today, is setting up his new home. This may show who his supporters are. -
Hello. I'm Uncle Albert. I am Peter Andrew's parrot. I know what the law says, but I don't agree with it. All boat people are illegal immigrants and criminals, even though no one knows if they have a criminal record. As I have said before, they should be sunk while they are crossing the channel. I do not care that there may be women and children on board

The former footballer, 50, was honoured by King Charles at Windsor Castle on Tuesday, receiving a knighthood for his outstanding contribution to sport and charity.
And while her husband celebrated becoming Sir David Beckham, Victoria also gained a new form of address.
In keeping with royal tradition, the fashion mogul and former Spice Girl is now entitled to call herself Lady Beckham - a courtesy title given to the wife of a man knighted as 'Sir.'
Sir David beckham and Lady Victoria Beckham, that will take some getting used to. -
What is racism?
Racism is the belief that groups of humans possess different behavioural traits corresponding to inherited attributes and can be divided based on the superiority of one race or ethnicity over another. It may also mean prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against other people because they are of a different ethnic background. Modern variants of racism are often based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples.
