Who’s right about Cop27 - Sunak or Sturgeon?

RISHI SUNAK is being criticised for not going to Cop27. In fact, he should be applauded for staying behind to tackle the cost of living crisis. Climate change policy and action is one area where the UK leads the world, so Mr Sunak should be applauded for dodging the limelight and getting on with the day job. That’s something Nicola Sturgeon doesn’t do; on hearing of the PM’s decision, she booked a last-minute city break to Cop27 to forget her woeful eco record and bathe in the UK’s good reputation.

SO NICOLA Sturgeon and Boris Johnson are to attend Cop27 in Egypt. Are they both motivated to go principally to score points against Rishi Sunak, who isn’t attending? And of course both adore a photo opportunity. Since neither will be there in a genuinely official capacity, perhaps they could share a hotel room to minimise their waste of taxpayer cash? I wonder who’d win in the pillow fight? MArtin redfern, Melrose,

PRIME Minister Rishi Sunak has rightly decided not to attend the Cop27 meeting in Egypt as he has too much work to do in sorting out the massive problems facing us in the UK. Nicola Sturgeon has decided to go to Egypt as she can report that Scotland has missed all the targets set by the Scottish Government for climate control in the last ten years.

AS RISHI has opted to stay at home to try to resolve the economic issues this country faces, this has given Sturgeon an opportunity to go on yet another jolly at the Scottish taxpayers’ expense in sunny Egypt. Let’s face it, she is a small fish in a big pond. Her place is here trying to solve the total mess Scotland is in.
