Reform UK has said they will declare a ‘national emergency’. Is this the same as the National Emergency Briefing is asking?

Reform is using the language of a national emergency to justify extraordinary measures to deliver its political programme. The National Emergency Briefing is asking for something fundamentally different: for the Government to level with the British public about the evidence on the climate and nature crisis, through a briefing led by independent experts.

We are not asking the government to use emergency powers, bypass democratic institutions or impose a particular programme. We are asking it to give people the information they need to understand the risks we face, so that the country can decide how to respond through the democratic process.
