Who wins in climate change around?

As BP rakes in £250 a second, millions struggle with sky-high energy bills, Tories ditch net zero policies in desperate and cynical bid to win voters

SINCE David Cameron decided to cut "the green crap", the Tories' failure to deliver net zero policies has meant huge bills for families and monstrous profits for energy firms.

BP yesterday announced its latest bonanza after raking in £2billion in the three months to June - £256 a second.

And that came days after Rishi Sunak confirmed he would award 100 licences for North Sea oil and gas exploration.

That will further line the pockets of energy firms and also fly in the face of the UK's goal to be net zero by 2050, when a balance is achieved between the amount of carbon emitted into the atmosphere and the amount removed.
