Although the British Prime Minister's Office has not officially announced the date of the election, major political parties have entered the election status.The Conservative Party has been in power for 13 years. According to the poll results, after the incident of the Prime Minister Johnson's party in 2021, the conservative party support rate has always been lower than the Labor Party. Most of the public opinion believes that the Conservative Party will be defeated by the Labor Party in the election.
During his tenure, Britain has always been a leading position in global climate change governance.In 2021, as the chairman of the 26th UN Climate Change Conference, Britain promised to reduce emissions by 68%on the basis of 1990 by 2030 -this is regarded as a target to formulate standards.
But Sunak, who took office for only one year, has greatly reversed British climate policy.Right now, he will win the general election as the number one policy formulation, and other matters, including climate change, must give up.Although he publicly denied this, it was sufficient to prove.
On June 22, he did not attend the extremely important new global financing contract summit held in Paris. He stayed in London and participated in a midsummer party held by the media tycoon Murdoch in the Palace of Spencer in San James, London.EssenceFormer Prime Minister Blair won the 1997 election, and Murdoch's support of the Sun Newspaper was indispensable.
The Guardian reported the scene of Murdoch to meet the British politics and media elites. It reads very much like the king to choose a concubine: "Murdoch held a mid -summer party in the Palace of Spencer, London. ThisThe 92 -year -old media giant sits on the sofa in the middle of the main hall and talks with the influential persons carefully selected -five minutes each time, strictly one -on -one talks.The nobles sipped the Pol Roger champagne while admiring the luxurious flower layout, guess who the next one would be. "
The Labor Party leader Stammer participated in the party; Sunerke was also among the guest list.
On June 30, the important figure of the Conservative Party's climate change policy and the House of Representatives Lord Gold Smith resigned, and he condemned the current Prime Minister Suonak's numbness to environmental issues.He said in his resignation letter: "The efforts we have done on extensive domestic environmental issues are completely stagnated. What's more worrying is that the United Kingdom has clearly withdrawn from the world stage and no longer play leadership on climate and natural issues.Role. We often absent from important international forums; in general, Britain should be the common leading country of the summit. "
In mid -September, on the occasion of the one -week UN General Assembly meeting, Sunerke was absent -this is the first time that British Prime Minister has not participated in the climate week for more than 10 years.Why did he miss the first chance to show his face in the United Nations since he took office?Because the United Nations Climate Summit only accepts invitations, countries must obtain progress in governance of climate change to participate. The threshold is high. Sunak's current climate policy is likely to be unable to enter.In order to avoid eating closed doors, he simply couldn't go.
The intriguing things happened on September 20.On the same day, British television broadcast a state visit to France with a state -of -the -art state visit to France. It was grandly reported, but emergency news from Tangning Street -Sunak will give a live TV speech at 4 pm to announce the latest climate policy.It stands to reason that the royal visit is to do business for the government to enhance British soft power.Why is the Prime Minister's Mansion and the king's visit to grab the camera?
The latest climate policy announced by Sunak has been commented as "shocking" by some media, because he plans to delay the core part of the government's climate strategy, including delayed to the sale of new gasoline and diesel vehicles in 2035Plan, slowing the elimination of gas boilers, and landlords have no obligation to keep the insulation of rental houses in accordance with higher standards.
This move caused the anger of opposition politicians, green activists and some commercial groups.For the latter, this seriously interferes with their business goals and plans.
less than 24 hours later, Charles III gave a speech to parliamentarians with skilled French. He was the first British royal family member to speak in the French Senate in history.It is strange that he conveyed a different voice from Sunak in France (in the era of Elizabeth II, the queen did not interfere with politics at all, but symbolized the head of the country).Effectively deal with the challenges brought by "climate change; he also talked about the importance of climate issues.
The British media stunned the rare views of the royal family and the prime minister's palace. It seems that no one wants to provoke the conflict of the constitutional system of the British monarch.There is no writing constitution in the United Kingdom. The division of labor and balance between the king and the Prime Minister has always followed the convention. Where the red line is planned, whether it can move is something between them.
For the great reversal of Sunak's climatic policy, former Vice President Gore said: "I heard many friends in the UK -by the way, including many conservative members -The word "The word" there, some of the young people there felt that their generation seemed to be stabbed behind them. "
On September 26, another Conservative Party's climate change policy, Alok Sharma, a member of the house, announced that he would not participate in the next election.He is the chairman of the Glasgow's COP26 UN Climate Change Conference.It was he and then the then traffic minister Grant Shapps that he announced that it would prohibit the sale of gasoline and diesel cars by 2030.Now Sunak has postponed this policy until 2035. Sherma criticized Sunak for this reason that if the political consensus reached by the United Kingdom in terms of environment and climate action is broken, it will cause great damage to business confidence and foreign investment.He said better that he did not believe that the party who chose to take this road would help the election.
Why did Sonak adventure a big reversal in climate policy?The reason is related to the MPs controlled by the three Conservative Party in July.At that time, public opinion believed that the Conservative Party would lose control of these three constituencies. I did not expect that because of the Labor's ULTRA-LOW EMISSION ZONE (ultra-low emission zone) policy, the Conservative Party won in the UXBridge constituency.(That is, former Prime Minister Johnson's constituency, he resigned because of the party investigation report, which triggered the re -election).But the other two zones were won by the Liberal Democratic Party and the Labor Party.
This supplementary election that won with a weak advantage gave information such as Sonak: Although most voters want to solve climate issues as soon as possible, when facing the personal financial price, voters will choose personal financial interests.First, environmental issues second.But is this information cognition accurate?After the policy reversal, the polls launched from September 21st to 22nd from September 21st to 22nd show that the net value of Sonco's support rate is 45, which is the current. This is what he has so far so far.The lowest score.
