My question is to the Prime Minister. The 2020 UN Production gap report has reported that the world is heading for a temperature rise in excess of three degrees on current emission reduction commitments. In response, leaders around the world are speaking at the COP 26 Climate Ambition Summit this Saturday, to honour their commitment to act to stay within 1.5 degrees. Is it correct that, as a result of your government's failure to commit to increase its ambitions and do what it takes to stay within 1.5 degrees, you are not invited to present at the COP 26 Climate Ambition Summit?
