The Green Party leader is sounding the alarm on extreme heat, calling it the greatest threat to the nation since WWII—hitting health, food security, and daily life. He demands urgent action: cooling centers, heat-resistant housing, a halt to new oil drilling, and better wildfire response—including helicopters. He also backs public ownership of water utilities to tackle droughts, citing Greater Manchester’s transport model as inspiration. But Labour pushes back, accusing Greens of blocking local clean energy and reservoir projects—like Oxfordshire’s big dam and Norfolk’s solar farms—arguing their local opposition undermines national climate goals. The Green leader admits more detail is needed on how public water control would work—but insists systemic change is non-negotiable.
