The public is divided on whether Rishi Sunak’s changes to net zero were the right thing to do, but his personal ratings have fallen.
The public is divided on whether Rishi Sunak was right to water down the UK’s net zero commitments – but most do not trust the Conservatives to protect the environment, a new poll has found.
Around three-quarters of people said they knew at least something about Mr Sunak’s changes, but these were evenly split on whether they thought it was the right decision. There is also little confidence that the UK will meet its net zero target, with two-thirds saying they were not confident even before Wednesday’s announcement. Following the announcement, 48% said they were now less confident the UK would meet its targets, while 13% said they were more confident.
“However, there is less sign that it has improved overall levels of trust in the Conservatives on the cost of living, while confidence in them on the environment is also low.
