Green New Deal
A Green New Deal for London must put social justice at it’s heart. The pandemic has shown us how quickly our society can be transformed. I want to work with trade unionists and community groups across our city to define what our climate transition can look like.
Climate change is a class issue and air pollution hits our poorest communities the hardest. Economic transformation must be the central pillar to London's Green New Deal. Let’s cover our city in solar, insulate our drafty homes and end fuel poverty.
Let’s continue divesting City Hall’s pension from fossil fuels, build up our Energy for London company; and support local councils creating their own community-owned energy companies.
