Private jet to go from Glasgow to London, Johnson accused

He used a private jet to leave Glasgow, home of the COP26 climate conference, to London. Boris Johnson is accused of “hypocrisy” by the Labor opposition for this reason. According to what emerged, the British premier was in a hurry to reach the capital, to attend a dinner where the former director of the Daily Telegraph, Charles Moore, was present. Labor president Anneliese Dodds recalled that during COP26 Johnson had urged other world leaders to stop “wrapping the Earth in an invisible and suffocating blanket of CO2”. For Dodds, the use of a private jet and dinner with Moore, a notoriously “skeptical” about climate change, are just an example of “astounding hypocrisy” on the part of the premier. A source in Downing Street explained that the departure of Johnson on Tuesday from Glasgow had been scheduled from the start, because the world leaders’ speeches were scheduled to end on that day. As for the use of a plane instead of the train to reach London, a spokesman for the premier replied that the choice was dictated by Johnson’s busy schedule.
