Of course - they'd say that. What else would they say?

I assume after climate change has caused a full-on ecological crisis, Johnson and Sunak (& chums) will insist they got the "big calls right" on #climate

For example, they protected the "motorist" (AKA the fossil fuel industry) rather than our future.
