From The FT:
Environmentalists are becoming increasingly concerned that a Conservative government could fail to live up to David Cameron’s early promise to put green issues at the heart of government...
There are fears that Boris Johnson’s actions in London – the mayor has cut the Greater London Authority’s climate team from 49 posts to 26 – are a sign of things to come.
C'mon BoJo, now you've found the stack of blank P45s, why not do the other 26 as well? What on earth does a member of the "climate team" do all day long? Can't he just watch the weather forecast on the telly before he goes to work like everybody else?
* OK, sacking 23 out of 49 isn't quite halfway, but hey.

I thinks that it will not good for whole project.
26 people sitting in an office talking about climate change? Or do they need 26 people so that someone can answer the phones when the other 25 go and sit on the roof of Parliament?
I don't thin "climate change" is their fear. Unemployment is.
