Scottish Labour accuse SNP of ‘hypocrisy’ after it cuts £133m from energy efficiency schemes
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar is applauded following his speech during the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool
SCOTTISH Labour accused Scotland’s government of “hypocrisy” today for cutting almost £133 million from energy efficiency schemes days before Cop27 opened in Egypt.
The party criticised the SNP-Green coalition for making the cuts amid a cost-of-living crisis and in the run-up to the major climate conference.
Scottish Labour branded the decision “shameful” as First Minister Nicola Sturgeon heads to the Red Sea resort of Sharm El-Sheikh for the global gathering.
