BORIS Johnson is set to give a speech at the Glasgow COP26 in the coming minutes – as the row over sleaze allegations continues in Westminster.
The Prime Minister apparently caught a train to Glasgow this afternoon to speak at the event – where it is thought he intends to shake up world leaders with a rousing speech at the climate conference.
It comes as Labour analysis showed Tory MPs have received more than £1.7 million in consultancy fees since the start of 2021.
Anneliese Dodds, Labour Party chairwoman, said that one in seven Conservative MPs was taking money from outside interests – claiming 50 Tory backbenchers and former ministers had been paid by management or consultancy firms in the last year.
Ms Dodds said: “There is something rotten at the heart of Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party if one in seven of his MPs is taking money from outside interests. Every day Conservative MPs act as if there’s one rule for them and another for everyone else.”
