John Gummer tells POLITICO the UK is ‘failing fundamentally’ to delivery its emissions targets.

New data from the Office for National Statistics reveals that the UK hosted 202,100 low-carbon and renewable energy jobs in 2019 - 30,000 fewer than in 2014.

"These obscene gains of wealth during a pandemic prove that our economy is clearly designed for billionaires to profit, while millions suffer."

"Having the U.S. taking such strong action would reverberate across the world, and result in other countries also stepping up to adopt the kind of targets they need to make global net-zero a reality."
