Labour To Give £11.6 Billion To Overseas Climate Aid ‼️
Ed Miliband says Labour will honour pledge of £11.6bn in overseas climate aid. Public sector pay rises are going to cost £9bn* while Miliband plans to send £11.6bn abroad for climate crisis. Combined, these plans will come at an estimate cost of £20bn to the UK taxpayers. Meanwhile, the government claims there is a budgetary black hole of exactly that amount.As Labour gears up for this year’s 'climate-emergency' summit in November, Miliband convened a meeting with Mukhtar Babayev, Azerbaijan’s minister set to lead Cop29, and Ana Toni, Brazil’s climate chief, who will host Cop30 in Belem in 2025.In a rare appearance, Alok Sharma, former Tory minister and Cop26 president, also attended the meeting.
