Climate Election: Where does my MP stand?
Cambridgeshire North East
MP and Party
Position on Net Zero / Climate Change
-
MP commitment
Supports moves to decarbonise the electricity system but concerned about the pace of the transition. Has previously referred to net zero by 2050 as a ‘totemic ambition’ of the Conservative government. *
"I support moves to decarbonise Britain’s electricity supply. Remember it was the Conservatives who phased out coal, the most polluting of fuels. But the new Labour government has set themselves an unachievable goal of a net zero grid by 2030.”

X"Our commitment to levelling up is directly linked to another of the Government’s totemic ambitions—that of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050."
