Conservative MPs Show Poor Climate Voting Record, Study Finds

A study by VoteClimate found that no Conservative MPs have consistently voted positively on climate issues since 2010, except for Lisa Cameron, who defected from the SNP. Labour and the Liberal Democrats were top-rated for positive climate actions. VoteClimate guides voters on impactful policies and scrutinizes candidates' climate views.
A study by VoteClimate has found that no elected Conservative MPs have consistently voted positively on climate issues since the party came to power in 2010.

Only Lisa Cameron, who recently defected from the Scottish National Party, was rated as 'good' on climate votes.

VoteClimate, founded by Ben Horton, examines voting patterns on energy, transport, finance, housing, and other climate-related issues.

The analysis awards MPs points for positive votes and subtracts for negative ones.

Labour and the Liberal Democrats dominated the list of MPs rated 'very good' for their positive climate actions.

The organisation also offers voters guidance on which party policies would have the most impact on reducing carbon dioxide.

Furthermore, they scrutinize social media posts of parliamentary candidates for climate-denying views.

High-profile green figures like Jenny Jones and Chris Packham support VoteClimate.

Experts and political leaders have emphasized the importance of addressing environmental issues in elections, warning that failure to do so could result in significant voter loss.
