Khan issues challenge to Burnham not to back away from net-zero goals
London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan said green investment was needed to ‘get our planet back on track’.
Andy Burnham has been warned not to “slow down on net zero” by London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan, who argued the heatwave and wildfires showed the need for action on climate change.
The Prime Minister has acknowledged the devastation caused by the extreme weather is due to climate change but has faced criticism over his stance on North Sea oil and gas and potentially watering-down targets for the take-up of electric vehicles.

Perhaps Sir Sadiq Khan is preparing the ground for the next mayoral election - or even becoming Prime Minister Khan.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
DJ - yes, it's a scary thought, although so far Burnham gives the impression that he could be even worse than Starmer.
