Doing the exact opposite to Trump Farage and Badenoch seems to er work --
The analysis, by the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), found that 22,000 net zero businesses, from renewable energy to green finance, employ almost a million people in full-time jobs. The average annual wage in the businesses – £43,000 – was also £5,600 higher than the national average.
The CBI’s chief economist, Louise Hellem, said: “It is clear, you can’t have growth without green – 2025 is the year when the rubber really hits the road, where inaction is indisputably costlier than action.
“We are approaching critical points of no return for energy security and emissions reduction. It’s really fantastic to see the growing strength of the net zero economy in the UK and we need to really continue to see that ambition.”
The energy secretary, Ed Miliband, said: “These numbers speak for themselves. Net zero is essential to growth, a strong economy and money in working people’s pockets. Our mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower is the route to energy security, good jobs and investment in our communities.”
The Conservative and Reform parties did not respond to requests for comment.
Just a reminder of how terrible the Labour right are

Remember when Labour were pro-human rights? I'm sure a notable human rights lawyer will have some strong opinions on how this is wrong .

Nope, at least not whenever they've been in government in my adult lifetime.
They're happy to talk the talk in opposition, some of them I think even genuinely, but put them in power and these Blue Labour fuckers will betray anyone for thirty pieces of praise in the right wing press. And what good does this masochistic perversion do them? It loses them support faster than any government in modern British history. Yet as we've just seen with this latest reshuffle of the no 10 advisory staff they're digging their heels in. It can't be them who are wrong, it must be us.
Jailing peaceful protesters and fucking up their lives for having the temerity to oppose mass civilian slaughter is a choice. Cowardly betraying transgender people using the law for cover is a choice. Deliberately demonising and impoverishing the sick and disabled is a choice.
These are all things they want to do. Sacrifices to offer as they prostrate themselves before their right wing gods.
And again I ask where does it get them? Starmer being humiliated for all the world to see by an orange clown.
Can you imagine Harold Wilson putting up with that shit?
