UK News: Speculative applications for renewables schemes are slowing clean electricity transition, study finds
* Business live – latest updates
Two-thirds of applications to build renewable energy projects in Great Britain have failed to get through the planning stage over the past five years, hampering efforts to shift towards clean electricity generation.
A study of Britain’s “renewables pipeline” found that 63% of mooted projects were either abandoned, refused planning permission, or an application was withdrawn or ultimately expired between 2018 and 2023. The remainder of the applications were either approved or revised, according to the research by the consultancy Cornwall Insight. Continue reading…

Assange is reportedly travelling to a US plea deal hearing on the island of Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands
* Assange released from prison after striking deal with US
* Explainer: what are the details of the plea deal?
* Analysis: not a clear victory for freedom of the press
The plea agreement comes months after the US president, Joe Biden, said he was considering a request from Australia to drop the US push to prosecute Assange.

UK News: Anas Sarwar says ‘not a single vote has been cast’ after Grant Shapps said Tories fighting to prevent Labour landslide even bigger than 1997
The SNP leader John Swinney said at the manifesto launch that a win in Scotland for his party would be a mandate to push for a second vote.
The Labour party leader, Keir Starmer, widely expected to become the prime minister after 4 July, said categorically last week that he would refuse to participate in negotiations for another independence referendum even if the SNP won a majority of seats.
So what I am saying in this election is that if people in Scotland want to be an independent country, then they’ve got to support the Scottish National Party as the only means of ensuring that can come about and we cannot allow the westminster political parties to deny the people of Scotland their democratic rights and the democratic opportunity to decide their own constitutional future.
Because I think it’s an essential solution to the issues that people face in their lives today. If you look at the challenges of public spending cuts, which you’ve talked about in this programme, the devastating effects of Brexit on our country and our economy, and the impact of the cost of living these are all issues that have been delivered by westminster.
Well, I’ve obviously discussed this with my staff. I’ve been assured that no parliamentary stamps that have been provided by parliament have been used to support election purposes.
And it obviously the parliament has said that they’re looking into this matter, and obviously we will provide parliament with any assistance they require as they undertake those inquiries.
We campaign on a regular basis in my capacity as a member of parliament. So we’re engaging with the public on a countless range of different issues. So I think these are sort of humorous remarks made in a WhatsApp channel. And what’s important is the reassurance that I’ve had that parliamentary stamps have not been used for election purposes.
