Cruddas reversal shows his green credentials

Some interesting new green noises were among the many issues addressed by Jon Cruddas in his keynote speech to Compass at the LSE yesterday evening. Cruddas, “We need to marry up the core values of the greens and the Labour movement and join the dots between democracy, equality and ecological sustainability." He called for a reversal of the decision on the proposed third runway at Heathrow and the introduction of new emissions performance standards for power stations.
