Lord Moynihan

Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2026

Debate

Carbon Budget Order 2026

Contribution

At end insert “but this House regrets that the draft Order will increase the UK’s reliance on intermittent renewables, causing higher energy prices, further deindustrialisation and lower economic growth; is contingent on retaining a carbon tax which will impoverish households and industry; requires a reduction in livestock numbers and meat and dairy consumption; and will encourage the offshoring of emissions to countries with more polluting energy systems.”
