Historically, maybe, but not now. We have done more than any other country to get where we are now and the commitments we have made to get to net zero by 2050 are unchanged and will be honoured.

Given that, we should be focussing now on what other countries, who are currently contributing far more to the excess carbon being generated, are doing.

Agonising on what happened here in the past is not helpful or appropriate. What is important is where we are now and the extent to which other countries are honouring their own commitments.

But of course, it’s easier for the usual suspects just to continue to bash Britain at every opportunity. As always, that’s a given.
