The Tories International Development spokesperson slags off new Brown’s new Copenhagen pledge, only for Greg Clark, Climate Change Shadow minister, to back it 8 minutes later.
Thanks to The Fabian Society General Secretary, Sunder Katwala, on Next Left, for highlighting this:
“Tory DFID spokesman Andrew Mitchell has attacked the EU’s pledge on Copenhagen development assistance fund as ‘fiscal incontinence‘, speaking to the climate-sceptic ConservativeHome website.
While, within eight minutes, Tory environment spokesman Greg Clark seems to have backed it as “important and necessary“.”
Update – Thanks to Sunder for writing about us on the Next Left blog!
