Energy costs are high, and growth is slow because we can't build fast enough. Alongside scrapping VAT on household electricity, we are proposing changes that would unlock speed to build, and with it growth and lower bills. - Stop making generation wait years to connect to the grid. - Let anyone qualified build the grid, not just the monopolies. - Enforce planning decision deadlines. All of this shows up in the price of every kilowatt-hour, and makes energy expensive for people and businesses. Our CEO @alanchanguk joined @SkyNews this week to launch our policy manifesto, setting out the key changes needed from Government to unlock energy abundance in the UK.

Worth it:
Getting a call that Aaron Sorkin wants to adapt your book- followed by a call that David Fincher wants to direct- and then a call that Trent Reznor wants to score- makes you pretty happy you fought through 190 rejections to get your career going in the first place. :)

We ♥️ problems
There is no need to fear any problem you are working on. If you are working on it, then you are influencing the outcome. It's the problems you don't address that should concern you.
