About this listen
The Labour government has been in office for almost exactly a year.
There was a lot of promise before the election about the climate crisis, but are their manifesto promises coming to fruition?
In this episode we look at:
- Shifts in funding, and how that affects their promises on meeting net zero
- Why economic growth outweighs climate action in some areas
- The drift in policy from climate to other areas
- Why the climate crisis is not seen as a political driver
- What’s to be done about changing perceptions in Westminster
Professor John Barrett is joined by Dr Sean McDaniel who has recently published a series on what to expect from the new Labour administration in relation to climate action. They are also joined by Holly Brazier Tope, Deputy Director of Politics at the influential think tank, Green Alliance, who offers personal insights into directly working with politicians on creating a compelling narrative to address the climate crisis.
