TRAVEL THOUSANDS OF MILES BY PLANE TO DISCUSS WHY WE SHOULD STOP TRAVELLING THOUSANDS OF MILES BY PLANES AND CARS

His credibility

Are we all still pretending we can control the weather?

To push The UN & White House would look at hm like he is their caretaker!!!!

So he’s about to fly everywhere when he could zoom the same people. Are his family going to enjoy a free break. Boris why not save the climate, use modern technology, after all you’re reducing the military because of technology or do you think you’re different to everyone else?

Oh that's that fcked then...

Climate Action - so BorisJohnson is jetting of to the US having recently agreed to waive nvironmental standards in a trade deal with Australia. What a hypocrite Johnson is. JohnsonOut

Why travel? Use Zoom instead. He just wants the red carpet treatment and to stay in swanky hotel rooms. He also wants footage of him to put in the Tories next election montage.

How is he travelling, 1st class seat on a Nuclear Sub 🤔🤔

He's gone to tell a few lies while looking like he's been on the piss for about a week.

Hasn't he heard of Zoom?

Did you tweet that with a straight face 😂😂

Anything that gets him out of the country for a while is fine by us. Last weeks re shuffle was a bloody nightmare for us. We have to try and make Liz Truss look like a serious international statesperson. I mean…..seriously.

Does he really have to. Can't we send someone like Hancock. He not doing much.

So the government is going to spend fortunes on climate change but can’t spend money on the poor 🙄🙄🙄

Sadly his credibility on climate change is even worse than it was

Not by polluting jet one assumes.
