Just Stop Oil backs Labour’s eco policies by describing them as ‘exactly what we are demanding’
JUST Stop Oil has responded to Labour’s eco policies by describing them as “exactly what we are demanding”.
Sir Keir Starmer’s party will block new oil and gas developments in the North Sea as part of their Net Zero drive.
Just Stop Oil spokeswoman Emma Brown hailed the plan, which was first announced late last year.
Appearing on the Politics Weekly podcast in October with Labour’s climate change chief Ed Miliband, she said: “I heard (your) net zero strategy for energy.
"It’s basically our demand.
“It’s no new fossil fuel licences and a decarbonised energy system by 2030.”
