Labour MSP Colin Smyth said the Government's record was a 'humiliating failure'

“They claim to recognise the scale of the climate emergency, but missed targets and broken promises pile up around us.” It comes after the Climate Change Committee warned that the Government’s targets for slashing carbon emissions are in danger of becoming meaningless. “The SNP-Green government’s usual mismanagement and spin won’t cut it - we need bold action to build a greener, fairer Scotland.”
