Corbyn to attend Cop26 climate change summit in Glasgow to reiterate case for green new deal
JEREMY CORBYN will travel to Glasgow this November during the Cop26 climate change summit to reiterate the case for a green new deal.
Mr Corbyn’s Peace and Justice Project will host three days of events in Scotland’s largest city, bringing together speakers and cultural figures.
The socialist MP and former Labour leader will use his high profile to ensure that the voices of workers and under-represented groups in Britain and abroad are recognised during the United Nations conference of global leaders, which Glasgow will host from October 31 to November 12.
