Davey: Sunak is trashing the economy of the future

20 Sep 2023

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to reports that the Prime Minister is set to water down key clean energy pledges, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said: 

“The Conservatives have already trashed the economy of today. Now Rishi Sunak seems intent on trashing the economy of the future as well.

“The British people are trying to do the right things for our planet, even as they are struggling to make ends meet. But they have been let down over and over again by this out-of-touch Conservative Government.

“This latest Conservative chaos is putting hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk across the UK, and leaving families and pensioners paying sky-high energy bills.

“Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives clearly don’t have a clue what’s best for the future of our planet or our economy.”
