Skidmore, who resigned Tory whip last week, predicts former party will lose election partly because of its stance on net zero
Labour should stick to its £28bn climate spending plans, Chris Skidmore has said days after he quit as a Conservative MP due to Rishi Sunak’s climate stance.
Speaking to the Guardian, the former minister who was tasked with writing a review of the government’s net zero plans, said he supported the pledge despite being a “fiscal conservative”.
