"Political Turmoil: Labour's Shift on Climate and Rishi Sunak's Opportunity"

TL;DR Summary
Ed Miliband, Labour's shadow net zero secretary, has stated that he did not consider resigning over the party's decision to abandon its pledge to spend £28bn a year on green projects. Despite the U-turn, Miliband believes that Labour's plans still meet his criteria for addressing climate change. He has publicly supported Labour leader Keir Starmer's decision, emphasizing the party's commitment to investing in the country's future and making a difference. The revised green plan will now invest £23.7bn over five years, with a focus on creating "good jobs" in the green economy.
