    NEW UK govt has published 38pp doc on its 10-point climate plan, with numbers. Adding them up, it looks like the new measures would only close 55% of the gap to meeting UK's 4th/5th carbon budgets…even before thinking about net zero ambition. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-ten-point-plan-for-a-green-industrial-revolution …pic.twitter.com/zLGt39B3lw

        £4bn for this. £100bn for test and trace. There are no words for what’s going on right now

        £100Bn for test and trace that doesn't work. £16Bn for defence...

        Like in Denmark, I see over-reliance on CCU/CCS and PtX (hydrogen). Tech-fix won't do it.

        Annoying American observation here, but building zero emission planes and ships would be easier if the UK wasn’t cutting political ties with established manufacturers in the EU.

        Sounds about right. It's what I'd expect from Tories who don't really want to accept the science

        Have you managed to identify where the £4bn new funding has been allocated?
