The Tory Prime Minister was slammed after he watered down key Net Zero targets in a bid to turn round his party's plummeting approval rating.
A plan to halt the sale of new petrol and diesel cars in Scotland by 2030 will be delayed due to Rishi Sunak's u-turn on climate policies.
The MP said: “We will have to move to 2035 because even if the Scottish Government did have the authority to intervene in that particular legislation, which is reserved to the Department for Transport and its agencies, principally the DVLA. He said: “The market environment was set out by the Conservative Government in 2020 and industry has been gearing up and tooling up and investing in that market environment, only to find out as of yesterday from the Prime Minister that they’re actually now operating in a completely different environment.
