Labour is not scaling back its pledge to invest £28 billion annually into green projects in a bid to kickstart economic growth. Senior Labour figures have been dogged by questions about its so-called green prosperity plan following frequent suggestions in the press that it could be scrapped or watered down. The policy has attracted Conservative attacks, with the governing party arguing it is unaffordable and will lead to tax rises. Under its plan announced in 2021, Labour promised to invest £28 billion a year until 2030 in green projects if it came to power. The Opposition frontbencher Chris Bryant said that Labour intends to deliver on the commitment if the party wins the next general election, but refused to set out a timeframe for when a future Labour government would start meeting the investment sum.
