The Labour leadership’s narrow definition of ‘working people’ leads to distorted and unjust Budget calculations, where the unearned income of the super-wealthy doesn’t factor in at all, argues JON TRICKETT MP
IT is amazing that at exactly the same time as the press is full of stories about the devastating effects of climate chaos on people in Europe and around the globe, we are also seeing headline after headline about pressure on both the Tory and Labour leaders to ditch even more policies aimed at protecting our environment, alongside a media and hard-right scare campaign against the mayor of London’s extension of the Ultra Low Emission Zone.
The fact that many on the hard right deny the need for real action to tackle climate change does not alter the reality.
And the reality is that the increasingly extreme events across the globe — such as the Greek and Italian wildfires just this week — are clear examples of a deepening climate emergency that needs to be addressed urgently.
