Foreign Secretary David Lammy has come under fire after it was revealed he spent a staggering £1.2 million on flights in just three months – with most of that going on private jets. The hefty bill, racked up between October and December 2024, has raised eyebrows not just for the cost, but because it clashes with Labour’s own promises to curb the use of private planes by ministers.
While there’s no suggestion Lammy has gone further than those before him, the timing has drawn criticism. Especially since Labour has repeatedly slammed the Tories for doing the same thing, reported the Express.
