I am all for reducing aviation's climate impact, but seriously how else did you expect him to travel.
From Stansted by plane = less than an hour
From Paddington by train = over 6 hours
By road = is anyone's guess, maybe 8 or 9 hours

Did you expect him to hitch hike?

All this indignation about the carbon footprint of the summit. Its a drop in the ocean.

PMQ’s Wednesday lunchtime, only reasonable way to arrive on schedule.

Didn't have much choice really. I suppose he could have walked but road/rail would have been tricky.

Well I wondered how Biden got to Cornwall from Suffolk where he landed. I am guessing helicopter!!

You couldn't make it up.

Indeed ...

sheer provocation or sheer stupidity- or both!
