Such deep defenders of the poor they target taxpayer money to a loopy super rich eco school.
There is no desire to “save the planet” among voters when it comes down to actually having to do something real about it. They love the idea of protecting the future but balk at the reality of having to cut back on their life styles when offered real policy.

Until a policy is proposed that requires higher taxation or greater wealth redistribution and then people start screaming with outrage and said policies disappear faster than a kind-hearted and progressive PM. When said PM realizes they are providing cover for zero change and is exhausted by the futility of gaslighting the electorate on behalf of capital.
