surprise surprise, Fishy Sunak reveals his true colours and sends out his lunatic generals to spin the news. The measures we need are already not good enough, now hes messing about with jobs and investment in order to find something to hit Labour with. Pathetic spineless wankers

So the british people will be wealthy but dead.
Interesting spin.
We’d love for our grandchildren to be able to breathe but not if it causes us any minor inconvenience or costs us any money.
It’s not about our grandchildren. It’s happening faster than that. It’s about ourselves and our children. They’re rejecting moderate inconvenience now in favour of an unlivable situation in just a few years’ time, when the inconveniences will be deadly for people everywhere. But the Conservatives have always been the short-term greed party with no actual interest in the common good.
When I become wealthy I’ll let you know! The British people who will be wealthy by this measure will surely take it all offshore and be tax efficient
At this point I just keep repeating “don’t worry, it’ll all be over soon”.
Don’t even see how new cars electric is “affecting poor people”. poor people wouldnt have been impacted until 2037 anyway in second hand. People buying new car petrol or electric in 2030-2030 would not be poor.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Rishi Sunak will not “save the planet by bankrupting the British people”, the home secretary has said as she rejected claims that the government is backing away from its net zero commitments.
Suella Braverman said she was proud of what the government had achieved over the past 10 years and commended the prime minister for making “difficult decisions” before his expected move to weaken environmental policies.
The home secretary refused to say whether the government had spoken to the electric car industry before shifting the government’s net zero stance, adding: “We’re only going to achieve that net zero target whereby people and the British people can go about their daily lives using their cars, using the facilities that are available to them, in a pragmatic way.”
Mike Hawes, chief executive of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, said delaying the ban on new petrol and diesel cars and vans could lead motorists to not switching to electric vehicles because the overall message was “confusing”.
On Tuesday the prime minister said the government remained committed to the net zero target but planned to hit it in a “better, more proportionate” way.
Sunak recommitted to the target of net zero emissions by 2050, insisting his government was not “losing our ambition or abandoning our commitments” on climate change.

What’s interesting is about six months ago my father in law who works for Shell informed me they are effectively ditching their renewables investment and going hard on oil and gas again, which is what the American companies have done. Six months later, boom, Rishi kertows to the very same industry.
