Re Warm Homes Plan. Not sure it’s right that not boosting it now doesn’t have future trade offs. Sends a signal to the supply chain not to invest so when govt does want to press the accelerator there may not be enough fuel in the tank (if they want it to be as big as suggested in opposition).

One mild disagreement: The fuel duty freeze is fine - the current tax is far above the carbon price - so if you can bank some political credit for it, which you can use to build windfarms, that's a good tradeoff.

Though the fiction that it will increase in future is ridiculous.
