RISHI Sunak has been accused of “rolling back” on commitments to tackling climate change , as he also faces renewed calls to introduce a “meaningful” windfall tax on fossil fuel giants.
The Prime Minister has been criticised for “snubbing” the COP27 conference in Egypt next month, which his predecessor Liz Truss was due to attend along with world leaders such as US president Joe Biden and French president Emmanuel Macron.
Downing Street has also confirmed a decision by Truss to stop King Charles attending the global summit will not be revisited, with advice it would “not be the right occasion for the King to visit”.
