The Labour Party has had a complicated relationship with Sir Tony and his legacy since he left Downing Street in 2007.

The Tories - who have joined Reform UK in opposing net zero emissions by 2050 - urged Labour to end the "mad dash" to this goal - but Downing Street said it would not be changing course.

Downing Street agreed, describing their words as "half-hearted" and "completely unacceptable".

Asked last month if the government was planning another "bonfire of the quangos", Downing Street said the PM wanted to see a more "active and agile state", rather than "outsourcing" decisions to other bodies.

Downing Street said the measures would also encourage the return of Syrian refugees to the country.
