Proceeding contribution from Lord Lawson of Blaby (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Climate Change: Cancun.


Climate Change: Cancun

My Lords, I join my noble friend in his satisfaction with an outcome that binds no country to anything at all. In that event, however, does he not agree that the position of the United Kingdom, which, alone in the world, has bound itself legally to a massive decarbonisation agreement at huge cost and by a specific date, is utterly incomprehensible, not to say quixotic?
