GB News presenter Jacob Rees-Mogg has criticised Scotland's decision to u-turn on net zero targets, as he claimed that the 2050 benchmark is "unrealistic" and "unaffordable".
Jacob said: "The green fanatics in the Scottish Government, where they know how to be fanatics, have had to backtrack on their flagship greenhouse gas reduction target.
"The SNP has committed to reducing Scotland's CO2 emissions by 75 per cent by 2030, yet Scotland has missed eight of its past 12 carbon emission targets.
"Now, the Climate Change Committee has reviewed its policy and advised that the absurd reduction target is out of reach. So this afternoon, the SNP's energy Secretary announced the Scottish Government would scrap its annual and interim targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions."
