    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.
