Rt Hon Chris Skidmore – Making EVs decisive not divisive | The Stop Burning Stuff Podcast
In our very first #StopBurningStuff Friday Takeover podcast, campaign co-founder Quentin Willson is joined by the Rt Hon Chris Skidmore OBE to talk about clean energy, EVs, politics and the future of UK Industry.
Many have hailed Chris Skidmore as a ‘Politician with principles’ following his resignation from UK Government over its decision to grant new oil and gas licences. Since authoring the Government’s independent Net Zero review in 2023, Chris has advocated for the transition to cleaner technologies.
In this episode Chris talks about the need for greater political backing of EVs and clean energy solutions, what is at stake for UK industry and the economy if we don’t embrace these new technologies, and how we can all help influence positive change at a grassroots level.
