Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss are “EMBARRASSED” to discuss climate change | Andrew Marr | New Statesman

Andrew Marr on climate change: now that we are down to just Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss, there has been a “remarkable lack of real engagement in the biggest problems facing the country.”

Whilst there are many issues facing the country at the moment, including inflation and the Ukraine war, “a bigger threat still is climate change.” – Andrew Marr

As the Tory Leadership continues, Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss continue to battle over who will become the next Prime Minister on issues such as Tax, immigration, and rail strikes, Andrew Marr points out the “sad and pathetic” lack of discussion on the issue of climate change, made all the more important by the forrest fires in the UK caused by a recent heatwave.
