Lol they’re the right-wing party.
Well that might explain why this Mr. Tory Sunak is dropping this policy. Traditionally, the right-wing are fervent anti-communists
It’sore that they proposed it and then dropped it because it didn’t have the grift in it for them. Communists not involved.

A combi boiler has a lot of convenience, it’s cheap, and it’s cheap to run.
I’m sure a great pump is great in a property designed for it, but retrofitting one is not viable for most.
