zac, lord goldsmith, welcome to hardtalk. thank you for having me. it s a pleasure to have you here. just a couple of months ago, you left rishi sunak s government and, as you left, you lobbed a political grenade in his direction. why did you do that? my concern is that, you know, i m maybe a rare thing, a minister who cares passionately, or cared passionately about my portfolio. and ifound myjob was becoming untenable, it was becoming impossible for me to go forward. it was becoming virtually impossible to prevent government from sliding back. and the key issue is this pledge which was made by borisjohnson, repeated by liz truss, repeated a few times by rishi sunak around international climate finance, from which so much of what the uk has done over the last few years flows, and that pledge was being broken. you say, because it was a pledge of something over. £11.6 billion over five years. ..over five years to be invested in international climate change programmes and ....
