Jacob Rees-Mogg has said the government will "accelerate" the roll out of renewable technologies with "vim and vigour" after Ed Miliband accused the new business and energy secretary of flirting with climate change denial. In his first public comments since being appointed by prime minister Liz Truss to head the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy on Tuesday, Rees-Mogg used the House of Commons energy support debate on Thursday (8 August) to stress the necessity of boosting domestic supply.
