A former chief economist at the Bank of England has said he "laments" Labour's decision to axe its pledge to spend £28bn every year until 2023 on green investments.
Speaking to Sky's Sophy Ridge, Andy Haldane said the original promise "led the world" in ambition, and would have benefitted Britain - both in achieving its net zero goals and stimulating growth.
Mr Haldane added: "The scaling back of our plans in the UK, at the same time as other countries have stepped up their plans, is unfortunate."
