'Could relax' and 'won't stick rigidly' means the 2030 pledge was always a ceiling dressed up as a floor. They frame it as cost of living pragmatism so the walk back gets filed under helping families instead of what it actually is, which is pre negotiating with the grid before the hard part starts.

The new energy secretary has told the Times that the government could relax some of Labour's net zero targets to help reduce the cost of living. Miatta Fahnbulleh tells the paper that ministers won't stick rigidly to a pledge to nearly eliminate fossil fuels from Britain's power supplies by 2030.
