It's the anti net-zero, anti-woke Tony Blair - how was this man ever considered a progressive? | Zoe Williams

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : That's what's often so chilling about anti-climate action - the case for change is so established that you expect its opponents to be at the top of their game, to have an argument so strong that it had never occurred to a waiting world; you expect them to be extraordinary.
42% : The former PM has form when it comes to pushing corporate interests and meeting populists halfway When Tony Blair came out this week to say current net zero policies were "doomed to fail", there was something familiar in his arguments: phasing out fossil fuels wouldn't work because people perceived it as expensive, arduous and not their problem.
38% : Maybe he's lobbying for tech optimism, maybe he's working against state regulation.
