Not one of the supposedly serious people now attacking net zero on this platform on a daily basis ever acknowledge that climate change might be a problem that requires a response. It's climate denial all the way down.

So in Sunak's new Cabinet we have:
- Environment Sec married to the exec of sewage-pumping water firm
- Health Sec in charge of obesity married to CEO of major sugar firm
- Foreign Sec tainted by Greensill lobbying scandal & isn't even an MP
Sounds like "common sense" to me...
Setting a terrified bull on fire and watching as he burns is sadistic. Please @cmmsoria, help cancel the torturous #ToroDeFuego event. #FireBullFestival

This is great from @WilliamJHague. Although it’s slightly depressing that it feels really refreshing to see a senior politico spell out so clearly what really should be self evident to all of them.
