Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has announced that no "new or further investment" in green technology will be made should a Labour government be elected.
Sir Keir said that the Conservatives had done "terrible damage to the economy", which had forced that party's hand on future investment options.

Other commitments - to green steel, gigafactories, GB Energy and a National Wealth Fund - were fully funded and remain in place, he said.
