MORE than half the public oppose Labour’s decision to scrap its “green prosperity plan,” a new survey reveals.
The party had pledged to invest £28 billion a year on green projects, but the promise was gradually diluted and last week it announced a complete U-turn, reducing investment plans to address climate change to just £23.7bn over the whole course of the next parliament.
But a Nature 2030 campaign survey conducted by Yonder found 54 per cent of people believe Labour should have kept the pledge.
