Boris left COP on private jet to meet climate sceptic Telegraph pal

Boris Johnson flew out of the COP26 climate summit on a private jet to attend a dinner with a former Daily Telegraph editor at an exclusive men-only club in central London.

The Daily Mirror said the Prime Minister left the conference in Glasgow at 6.20pm and arrived at London Stansted at 7.16pm – before heading to the private Garrick Club for a dinner with a host of former Daily Telegraph journalists.

Johnson was snapped leaving the club at 10pm, accompanied by Lord Moore – his former boss and a self-confessed climate change sceptic.

The dinner was understood to have been a reunion for Telegraph writers, where Johnson was formerly employed as a £250,000 a year columnist – a fee he once described as “chicken feed”.
