Sunak and ministers stoking division over UK’s net zero target, warns Ed Miliband

Labour shadow energy minister will use speech to say Tory approach is also leading to higher bills

Ministers are stoking the fires of the culture wars over the UK’s net zero target instead of addressing the urgency of the climate crisis, Ed Miliband will say.

The shadow energy secretary will make a pitch directly to Conservative voters who are concerned that the party has made major U-turns on cutting greenhouse gas emissions amid increasingly anti-green rhetoric.
