BP is working to bring more lower carbon energy to the UK, like designing two hydrogen plants,

and we're keeping oil and gas flowing from the North Sea. It's and not all. That's how BP is backing Britain.

While today we're mostly in oil and gas we increased the proportion of our

global annual investment that went into our lower carbon and other

transition businesses from around 3% in 2019 to around 23% in 2023.

But I'm starting with Wes, who is one of Labour's biggest hitters, one of their most effective

communicators, and talking to him just about one being the candidate in Ilford North but also more national things given that he is one of Labour's most prominent stars.
