Continued thread
During the #CANBill debate @carladenyer is speaking well, revealing the proposer Roz Savage has been bought off with a last-minute deal. (Looked like there was an attempt to filibuster it with a government statement too.)
A framework consistent with scientific understanding of sustainability and with international agreement still needs proper debate. Letting the bill progress to committee would do that.
Roz Savage stated had to co-operate with government. Nadia Whittome also backtracking.
The Climate and Nature Bill has its Second Reading in Parliament

The UK must lead on climate action. My Climate & Nature Bill (2nd reading 24 Jan) can make it happen - but we need Gov’t to not block this vital step. MPs must be free to vote with their hearts for our planet.

EnvironmentJournal · Free voting needed for Climate & Nature Bill parliamentary processPolling shows the public thinks Labour is no more nature-positive than the Tories as pressure mounts on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to ‘back not block’ this month’s environmental bill. New research published by environmental campaign group Zero Hour points to widespread criticism at the lack of environmental ambition…
RT by @CarolineLucas: “@Keir_Starmer faces pressure to allow a free vote on the Climate and Nature Bill—a Private Member's Bill led by @DrRozSavageMP. The #CANBill proposes raising the UK’s emissions reduction targets, restoring nature and creating a citizens' assembly.” @edie https://www.edie.net/climate-and-nature-bill-vote-puts-labours-green-agenda-under-scrutiny/
