If Reform UK wins the next election, scrapping net zero is first on their list of policies. Party leader Nigel Farage believes the move could save tens of billions over the next parliament, freeing up funds for tax breaks and benefits boosts. Labour’s Ed Miliband, on the other hand, appears to be building his platform on preventing this coming to pass. If Labour can block Reform by triumphing at the ballot box, that’s all well and good. If it can’t, then there are other tools.

Just as important, however, is the question of how much of it will be easily cut. Depending on which analysis you follow, spending over the rest of this parliament could average somewhere between £13bn and £19bn per year, with the latest Climate Change Committee Carbon Budget suggesting that anywhere between £6bn and £23bn of public funding could be needed in 2035.

I cannot express quite how weird it is that the British Left is furiously defending the import of workers as a policy explicitly designed to suppress wages and increase competition for roles. I thought their whole thing was supposed to be bargaining between capital and labour?
I would want them to live in a prosperous country. Pouring in low-skilled workers, each a lifetime fiscal drain, bringing three dependants who are also fiscal drains, would run against their interests. I wouldn't want my children paying a fortune in tax to sustain this.
