DON'T BIN YOUR GREEN PLEDGES

JOHN Swinney has been urged not to dump key green measures five years after Nicola Sturgeon's declaration of a "climate emergency".

It's feared the new First Minister is set to ditch flagship policies such as phasing out gas boilers and replacing them with heat pumps.

He is reportedly considering the cull after the collapse of the SNP-Green coalition at Holyrood.

Eco-campaigners now fear the Heat in Buildings Bill could face the axe or be watered down.

The proposals, previously spearheaded by the Greens' Patrick Harvie, required all homes to meet new energy standards by 2033 - and to replace boilers with "clean heat" by 2045.
