Breaking | @angelaeagle publishes AIR QUALITY 'COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT SUMMARY 2025' nine days late, reporting NO2 LEGAL BREACH in Marylebone Road hours after @Keir_Starmer by-election closes. Wake-up call to @SadiqKhan as London breaches after complying in 2024 cc @ZackPolanski @EdwardJDavey @tobyperkinsmp @BarryGardiner @CommonsEAC @vonderleyen
Guessing that only @andyburnham or #10 will have had authority (or ‘no objection’) to let @angelaeagle publish with this precise delay at key stage of @CommonsEAC inquiry into…#AirQuality

Ozone is the most irritant gas for humans. @angelaeagle claims "There were no measured exceedances of the ozone population information threshold of 180 µgm-3 in 2025". Defra's website shows exceedances of 180 on five days in 2025 cc @tobyperkinsmp @BarryGardiner @CommonsEAC gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Awaab’s Law set legal deadlines for social housing landlords to fix dangerous damp and mould - and is already helping to drive up standards in the social housing sector.
We’re now moving to extend it to private landlords so that England’s 11 million private renters can get the same protections. Extending his law could more than double the number of homes covered by legal deadlines to fix dangerous hazards.

Delhi’s pollution season isn’t “starting early”, it is starting predictably.
The worst average AQI for the first 4 days of October since 2020. PM 10 dominance, local emissions, road dust, C&D waste, biomass burning are already pushing the city towards another toxic winter.

The UK’s spy chiefs examined the impacts of the collapse of overseas ecosystems, under pressure of climate crisis and biodiversity loss, on UK’s national security.
Their findings?
“Apocalyptic.”
UK defence and society at risk, impacts within 5 years.
