Sunak and Cameron jets to COP: Wrong signal and waste of taxpayers' money

30 Nov 2023

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to the news that Rishi Sunak and David Cameron will be taking seperate flights to COP28, Liberal DemocratClimate and Energy spokesperson, Wera Hobhouse MP said:

"Sunak and Cameron travelling to this vital summit in separate private jets is not just a waste of taxpayers' cash, it sends all the wrong signals about the UK's climate commitments.

"The UK should be playing a leading role at COP28 and driving our planet forward to a cleaner future. Instead, this government is slashing net zero targets at home while taking polluting private flights abroad."
