Reform UK’s Richard Tice is under fire for telling people to “enjoy” the extreme heat, sparking backlash from Labour’s Bridget Phillipson, who demands an apology to firefighters risking their lives to battle wildfires. Labour sees an opening, arguing voters are repelled by Reform’s hardline stance against net zero — while the Prime Minister stays silent. Labour even dropped a video pairing Tice’s comments with images of destroyed homes to highlight the cruelty of his tone. Meanwhile, Conservative energy figures like Claire Coutinho push for cheaper power and consumer choice over the 2050 target, fueling a wider debate as the government prepares to decide on new North Sea oil and gas fields — a decision that could reshape Britain’s energy and climate future.
