All-party climate group says backing away from green policies would be catastrophic for the economy
A cross-party group of influential politicians has urged Rishi Sunak to set an example by attending the UN climate summit this November, as both major parties come under pressure over their net zero policies.
The group of MPs and peers wants him to commit to attend Cop28 in Dubai, and to appoint a secretary of state as special envoy for the climate ahead of the UN general assembly in September, where preparations will be made for Cop28.
