Emily Thornberry calls on PM to explain why he did not use available scheduled flights
Labour has asked Rishi Sunak to explain why he used an RAF jet to fly to Scotland on Monday when scheduled flights were available, given the ministerial code says private planes should only be used when there is no alternative.
Sunak, a habitual user of helicopters and private jets even for other, relatively short UK journeys, travelled to Aberdeen on Monday morning in connection with an announcement on new North Sea drilling licences.
