Close your eyes, he sounds exactly like Mark Corrigan.

It started off almost like a farewell speech. Got my hopes up for a second there!

Its the most pussified speech ive ever heard. 'We are great, maybe the greatest but we cant take a leadership role in climate change because somehow that isnt fair'. Absolute fucking nonsense. Just come out and say it. 'We cant hit the targets and dont want to'.

You cannot change something this fundamental when you were the fucking runner up in a poll of 80,000 tory voters.

It feels like this is a speech that is going to feature in documentaries and books for years to come and not in a good way.

When the fuck have the Tories ever been bothered with doing things in a "fairer way"?!

And a kicking from The Speaker for good measure: In a strongly worded statement, it says plans to announce changes to green policy should be made in the House of Commons - rather than a news conference.
A spokeswoman for Hoyle's office says it is "not the way to do business" and that "ministers are answerable to MPs – we do not have a presidential system here".That must be at least the 10th time he has said that exact thing. What is the fucking point of him? To stop any beastly members of the opposition calling any Tories terrible true names, like "liar" in the house.

We need Hydrogen. But the fossil fuel lobby got to you and Schapps.

Sunak: People tired of change that 'never goes beyond a slogan'
No wonder satirists changed careers.

Its so incredibly defeatist. 'We want to be world leaders by aligning ourselves with less ambitious nations and the EU we are so much better than'. This fucking country, honestly.

Starmer really needs to come out and say something along the lines of "Don't worry, as soon as we're in all these targets will be back in place" so that businesses can carry on as if today hasn't happened.

That is the most insipid, spineless, untruthful, pathetic pile of verbal diarrhoea I've ever heard from the mouth of a British Prime Minister.
It's culture war bollocks just because he can't control the Ridiculous Right of the Conservative Party. Chuck everyone's future on the fire just to keep the Daily Mail and Torygraph happy.

He mentioned the cabinet is attending this press conference, so I assume it was those arseholes.

He’s such a wet fart. He delivered that with all the passion and commitment of a middle manager explaining to a team of 20 people why it’s a good thing they are about to become a team of 10.

I just find it fucking ridiculous that we can have a prime minister that was voted in by a handful of old people and have so much power over the country.
That really needs sorting out at the next government.
You get one replacement during a term or it goes to the polls.

So burning the world while the poor swim in actual rivers of shit is now explicitly government policy?

Not a single one of these things he's claiming to have scrapped are actually real policies or planned policies.

I'm sure they'll sort the environment out with all these SMRs, just ready to go. They definitely exist off paper....

I’m in Mid Bedfordshire, so the Nadine by-election, we got a flyer from the Conservative candidate today.
Says the tories are the party for the environment and he’s a green belt champion… someone didn’t send him the memo.
