Outdated fiscal rules are the real threat to Labour’s green plans

Lukasz Krebel wrote for the New Statesman about Keir Starmer’s speech on Labour’s climate policy plans:

“It was reassuring today to see Keir Starmer reassert his commitment to kicking the UK’s addiction to fossil fuels. But his ambitions are facing a snag: Labour’s insistence on arbitrary and self-imposed borrowing rules would limit the amount it could spend. If Labour gets into government, it mustn’t let these outdated dogmas take precedence over investing in our future.”
