Baroness Blake of Leeds (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 October 2024

Debate

Zero-emission Vehicle Mandate

Contribution

I think the noble Lord has referred to himself as the grit in the oyster. He makes an important point, but we are responding to the demands of car manufacturers. I think everyone can recall the outcry when the change was made by the previous Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, more than a year ago. We are not playing games on this; it is about what is right for the industry, for the consumer and, most importantly, for the country.
