COP26: Alok Sharma criticised for international - and quarantine free - travel
The president of the UK's upcoming climate change conference is under fire for reportedly travelling to more than 30 countries in seven months.
The Daily Mail said seven of the places visited by Alok Sharma were also on the Covid red list - but he used an exemption available to ministers to not have to quarantine on his return.
The government said face-to-face meetings were "crucial" ahead of COP26.
Oh dear - Alok Sharma is in trouble for only committing himself to pale green blagging. A vast swathe of government activity is clearly based on deep green blagging but maybe Mr Sharma didn’t get the degradable memo.
Even so he shouldn’t have missed the deep green blagging commitment Prime Minister Nut Nut has signed up to. It even has its own TV channel – the British Blagging Corporation (BBC). Has done for decades.
If only Mr Sharma had made those essential journeys by all electric wind-powered solar biofuel carbon neutral cycle plane, he could also have deflected all the Covid-19 masky traffic light stay in your hole multiprick criticism. A course on practical blagging would have pointed him in the right direction. Off to the re-education camp I think.

Alok Sharma sounds like something spicy from the takeaway.
I bet the places he visited were upmarket and sunny. That's where you can get the best view of the climate catastrophe.
'multiprick criticism' - I love that! Can I borrow it from you?
The whole COP thing will be a farce anyway!
Haven't they learned anything from the ridiculous 'Kyoto' thing, which that fat oaf Prescott seemed to fiddle about with! The whole shebang was a hugely expensive waste of time, energy and tax=payer's money. Dead in the water now.
Expenses and travel are the norm for all politicians, however foolish/stupid/thick, and no quarantine if you're a gummint 'minister'.
Sam - yes, upmarket and sunny with first class facilities.
Tammly - certainly - it's flattering when people do!
Scrobs - expenses and travel do seem to be be the bait for the political classes generally. Gets them on board and keeps them there.
