Christian Aid welcomes King's Speech


Responding to the King's Speech on Wednesday, Christian Aid's Chief of UK Advocacy and Campaigns Sophie Powell said:

"Across the globe, the climate crisis is causing sweeping floods, severe droughts and extreme weather that is destroying homes, habitats, and the rights of people to lead their own lives.

"The UK has a moral responsibility to act. Christian Aid therefore strongly welcomes the new government's recognition in the King's Speech of the 'urgency of the global climate challenge'.

"With COP29 just around the corner, keeping global climate cooperation on track depends upon securing an ambitious goal on climate finance. One of the first major tests of the new government's credibility will be mobilising our fair share, a plan is therefore needed with some urgency."
