What will Andy Burnham’s government mean for UK environmental policy and politics?
Date:
Summary
Two weeks into Andy Burnham’s premiership, what does it mean for UK climate and environmental policy?
Green Alliance’s Director of Politics Holly Brazier Tope is joined by Caitlin Prowle (Co-operative Party), Paul McNamee (LCEF) and Sarah Williams (Green Alliance) to unpack the politics of devolution, place-based power and a reshuffled DESNZ and Defra. They explore whether the environmental sector should worry if this government delivers green wins without ever saying “climate” and ask when we can expect the next election.
