that we face a climate emergency but there is a feeling amongst some in the shadow cabinet that ed milibandhat he has been drawing up ideas out of the spotlight, so will they prove costly in a general election? for the conservatives, it is almost that climate change is human caused and most believe we need action but there are deep divisions about how quickly you do that. jacob rees—mogg, he is sceptical of the need to act quickly and people like alok sharma, the former cop president and zac goldsmith believe we need to move fast and they fear that this is not something that causes rishi sunak to wake up in great alarm every morning. thank ou. well, let's discuss the politics of these possible climate change measures with carla denyer, co—leader of the greens, mark garnier, conservative mp and former trade minister, and in the studio by barry gardiner, labour, also formerly minister and shadow climate change secretary. welcome to all of you. carla denyer, fascinating line from the top of the two way, both parties might be moving into the sewer lane on net—zero? is that how you see it? it is

well, times radio�*s ayesha hazarika, the former advisor to the former labour party leader ed milibandbour mp5 with seats in that area, and it�*s a bigger question about those tensions between the centre of the party and some of these big mayors, who want to exercise their power. there is a judicial review into it at the moment. there is no result and that, but if it comes in, and it is a done deal, would it be an issue, and a very specific issue to london? . issue, and a very specific issue to london? , ., �* . , london? yes, i don't necessarily think ulez— london? yes, i don't necessarily think ulez is _ london? yes, i don't necessarily think ulez is going _ london? yes, i don't necessarily think ulez is going to _ london? yes, i don't necessarily think ulez is going to change i london? yes, i don't necessarily| think ulez is going to change the course of the next election. i think that�*s something the labour party will feel comfortable about. you look at the results from yesterday. the ulez thing, yes, it is a blip that could definitely affect local elections in london, mayoral ele

ed miliband has accused the government of a cultural war and climate .nd in cultural war and climate. and in taking maybe a more protract acted approach, as alex salmond , who's waiting to celebrate until he sees the colour of rishi sunak's money. however if you look at the plant behind me, about 1700 workers there of the almost quarter of a million around great britain that work in the oil and gas sector behind me, put out about 9,000,000l a day . and obviously that makes it day. and obviously that makes it one of the biggest polluters in the country. so time will really tell to see whether this plan for sunak of reusing and for rishi sunak of reusing and refurb fishing, the legacy transfer support networks and production networks that have gone into oil and gas for this carbon capture will actually come good and hopefully make the people over here at ineos behind me feel a little less bad about the amount of carbon monoxide they're pumping into the atmosphere. yeah >> with the steam and the smoke rising behind you into the sky. tony, you very much inde

david miliband would have always been the best. >> why did they pick ed? pick the better looking one not horrible. he's not being horrible. david he's a nice you know, nice looking chap, but you know, when know how people are when you know how people are people quite fickle, aren't people are quite fickle, aren't they? one. you they? so you need one. you had a more tony blair like charisma about him, didn't you? >> pick? ed is just >> how do they pick? ed is just a mistake. david should have a big mistake. david should have run stronger and harder run a stronger and harder campaign . think thought he campaign. i think he thought he had bag but had it in the bag, but his brother bizarre situation brother quite bizarre situation where brothers are running against each other pipped him at the post, but that from there on in the labour party really has faced challenges and problems and i don't think they've got it in the bag at the next general election necessarily. >> that. do >> i'll ask you that. yeah. do you tories could you think the tories could could if
