Among the changes, the Prime Minister announced a delay to the ban on new petrol and diesel cars by five years.
Scottish Tory MSP Maurice Golden has criticised the Prime Minister’s watering down of climate pledges.
Scottish Net Zero Secretary Mairi McAllan said the Scottish Government would be “urgently” assessing its own climate pledges as a result of the announcement. “Policy changes like this erode trust in the government, a trust that was already vulnerable thanks to the brief period in office of Sunak’s predecessor. And this announcement will hurt UK plc too,” he said.“It’s not a comfortable position for me to be criticising my own party on this matter.
