Would Reform UK's anti-climate policies cause thousands of job losses?

Reform UK proposes scrapping the 2050 net-zero target, dismantling renewable energy subsidies, reviving fossil fuel extraction, and restricting land use for solar farming or rewilding. Research by Transition Economics, commissioned by Oil Change UK and Friends of the Earth Scotland, finds these policies would cause 500,000 job losses within three years and 1.4 million by 2040. Party leader Nigel Farage argues the net-zero agenda threatens economic competitiveness and sovereignty.
