Kemi Badenoch moves away from net zero by 2050, in double climate U-turn

Tory leadership hopeful says she could set target back, despite backing the 2019 pledge on Monday

Kemi Badenoch has U-turned a second time on her support for the government target of net zero emissions by 2050.

After telling a room of MPs at the Tory leadership climate hustings on Monday that she supported the 2019 manifesto pledge, later that evening she declared on TalkTV that she would delay it.
