But equally they have done a series of things people like (am like a broken record on this) but haven’t had the cut through. As we set out in our new report on Labour 1 year in with @uclpolicylab.bsky.social there are things that could turn it around. Report worth a read

Getting the message on costs right can boost support for net zero by up to 20%.
The British public vastly overestimates the cost getting to net zero by almost 14,000%, fuelling scepticism and a reluctance to pay. On average, they estimate it will need 28% of GDP by 2050, compared to the Climate Change Committee’s forecast of just 0.2%.
