"Genuinely, I relish this fight on clean energy and net zero. Because that is what politics is about, he said."
"Reform is now part of a powerful network across the world who want to take away rights for workers, who want to reverse clean energy, he said.

Labour plans to confront a global network of right‑wing billionaires seeking to undermine net zero and reverse clean energy. The party will revive a green new deal pledge to tackle climate change and economic inequality and set a target to create 400,000 clean energy jobs, doubling sector employment by 2030. Priority roles will include engineers, researchers, welders, electricians and construction workers. Labour will push to accelerate unionisation in the green sector amid union concerns about highly paid oil and gas jobs. The strategy aims to show net zero benefits ordinary working people and reject an imported culture war.
