S2: Labour Party UK - Green Industrial Revolution Part 2/3
Aug 14, 2020•23 min
Episode description
This is the second part to their exploration of the UK Labour Party’s “Green Industrial Revolution”, which was part of their 2019 Manifesto. Rich and Carola give their thumbs up and thumbs down for various policy sections. Bringing back essential services into public ownership and going big on renewables get a big thumbs up, but funding seems to be the missing link.
This manifesto sections covers (Green Industrial Revolution) - Economy and Energy - Transport - Environment - Animal Welfare
Because the section on economy and energy took up a whole episode, this episode only contains transport. The next episode will cover the last two sections.
