Her attack overshadowed the PMs launch yesterday of the COP26 climate change summit.

Ms Perry ONeill, who was president of the summit, said the UKs climate change strategy was at Oxford United levels when we need to be Liverpool.

She accused the PM of a huge lack of leadership and told pals she was fired for being too ambitious, and a woman whos prepared to say youre wrong.

She said she was rattling too many cages and added: We need a revolution to meet our climate change targets, when all No10 wanted was incrementalism.

The row came as Mr Johnson launched COP26 at the Science Museum in London.

He teamed up with Sir David Attenborough to urge the world to unite to slash carbon emissions.

He said Treasury bean counters were wrong for moaning that tackling climate change was too expensive.
