Prime minister says he will attend climate talks next week in Egypt after earlier decision not to go drew criticism. Sunak had argued that “pressing domestic commitments” would keep him away from COP27 talks in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh after he inherited an economic crisis from predecessor Liz Truss. “There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change”, Sunak wrote on Twitter, “There is no energy security without investing in renewables”. Sunak said he would attend the summit to “deliver on Glasgow’s legacy of building a secure and sustainable future”, a reference to an agreement reached at last year’s COP26 event.
