Very, very, disappointing but fully expected. What a legacy for our grandchildren.

Oh so they should carry on blocking our roads and working class people trying to get to work to earn a crust and put food on the table. GrandSurely a climate change activist is the last person wishing to fly for 12hrs causing untold harm to the planet.
Also chopping hands an feet off? Not sure either country has form for that, at least when stereotyping a nation get their human rights abuse methods correct :-)

China is a fascist state - no longer communist in the true meaning of the word. and India is pretty much a nationalist state. Neither is capitalist in the Western meaning of the word.Capitalism trumps the climate.
We deserve to wipe ourselves out.

Which is totally different from Sky News which report him as stating the agreement is game changing.Boris just said it was a disappointment on BBC radio news at 6.
He could have said both to be fair, it is a significant step but still disappointing I suppose.Which is totally different from Sky News which report him as stating the agreement is game changing.

Oh and he is also reported to have said the agreement sounded the death knell for coal and was a truly historic.He could have said both to be fair, it is a significant step but still disappointing I suppose.
Doesn't sound as though he was looking both ways to me.
Here’s the whole statement:Oh and he is also reported to have said the agreement sounded the death knell for coal and was a truly historic.

“Of course, my delight at this progress is tinged with disappointment," added Mr Johnson.
"Those for whom climate change is already a matter of life and death, who can only stand by as their islands are submerged, their farmlands turned to desert, their homes battered by storms... they demanded a high level of ambition for this summit.
"And while many of us were willing to go there, that wasn't true of everybody. Sadly, that's the nature of diplomacy.
"We can lobby, we can cajole, we can encourage, but we cannot force sovereign nations to do what they do not wish to do. It's ultimately their decision to make and they must stand by it."
