Andy Burnham has jetted off to Turkey and addressed Cop31, where he has warned European leaders that “climate change is national security issue” and reaffirmed Labour’s commitment to Net Zero.The Prime Minister joined Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, who landed in Antalya on Tuesday, and insisted climate change is “not a distant threat”, adding: “It is upon us all now, devastating lives and livelihoods everywhere.”Meanwhile, two wars across two continents have sent fuel prices and gas bills soaring for families and businesses across the world. The common thread running through all of this: our dependence on fossil fuels.”The message I carry here at my Cop as UK Prime Minister is this, we’re committed to meeting our 2050 net zero target, and committed to working with all of our partners to reach theirs.”He continued: “We should all recognise the summer was not normal.”The climate crisis is upon all of us now. The world has changed. The consensus we once enjoyed on science and climate action has broken down.”We will not stand by and that’s why I’ve pledged a new era of British leadership over the next decade.”Mr Burnham is the sole leader of a G7 country present in Turkey today, with President Donald Trump refusing to send any delegations for the second year running.FOLLOW BELOW FOR LIVE UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE DAY…
