18 Sep 2022 Torsten Bell MP (@TorstenBell) @rcolvile@James_BG It’s more the general “we need to tank GDP to have a chance of achieving net zero” brigade I was thinking of, rather than the proponents of specific steps to achieve net zero (which we clearly need, some of which boost growth and others not) [Source]
