Ex-cabinet minister Amber Rudd at COP. The former home secretary – and energy secretary at the time of the last historic climate conference – joins Adam in Glasgow to look at how much progress has been made in the first few days of this summit.
And Laura and Chris are in Westminster where the Tory MP Owen Paterson has quit after being found to have broken lobbying rules. The row involved an embarrassing U-turn for the government and brought back questions about trust in politics. Not usually one to go easy on Boris Johnson, Amber Rudd thinks Number 10’s handling of it all was an “epic and baffling” mistake.
Today’s Newscast was made by Danny Wittenberg. The assistant editors were Alison Gee and Sam Bonham. The editor is Jonathan Aspinwall.
