Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 May 2019. It occurred during Opposition day on Environment and Climate Change.
Environment and Climate Change
I absolutely agree with my hon. Friend. I will come on to the work done by the previous Labour Government, which did so much to try and bring about awareness of the climate emergency. We have the chance to bring new manufacturing and engineering jobs to places that have never recovered from the destruction of our industries in the early 1980s. We need a green industrial revolution with huge investments in new technologies and green industries.
