Reply To: COP26
Typical of this government.They can’t organise anything. When they try and it goes wrong they blame other people.
Mr Eustice appeared to blame the Israeli delegation for the fact Ms Elharrar could not get into the venue, telling BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “What would normally happen in this situation is that Israel would have communicated that they had that particular need for their minister.”
But a spokesman from the Israeli Embassy in London said the country’s delegation to the summit had “communicated over the past several weeks all the details about the minister’s requirements”.
Mr Eustice faced some criticism for the remarks, with Lib Dem peer Lady Ludford tweeting: “Not the most gracious of responses for the COP26 host to blame the guest.”
