Alan Johnson relaunches class war attack on Tories
"The home secretary, Alan Johnson, issued Labour’s most personal attack on the privileged lives of leading Tories this weekend, claiming that too many were “public schoolboy millionaires”. In remarks sure to prompt new claims of Labour “class war”, Johnson, a former postman, said: “The Conservatives are the party of inherited wealth, private education and conspicuous affluence.” The home secretary claimed the fact that David Cameron, George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, and the London mayor Boris Johnson were all members of Oxford’s hell-raising Bullingdon Club proved that the party had failed to modernise." – The Sunday Times

Matthew d'Ancona: Gap between the people and the politicians was as great at Copenhagen as it was over expenses scandal – The Sunday Telegraph
"Gordon Brown, who seems to be embarking on a scorched earth economic policy in his final months in power, evidently regards this as worth it — he wants to go down in history as the man who saved the climate. Yet this government — or the next one — has been given a golden opportunity by the farce in Copenhagen: to abandon the carbon witch hunt altogether. If India, China, America, Brazil (and Uncle Tom Cobley and all) carry on with “business as usual”, then anything Europe does to cut its emissions is irrelevant, at best: it will cause pain and hardship for its own citizens to no purpose whatever." – Dominic Lawson in The Sunday Times
Greens condemn Copenhagen outcome
"Green Party leader Caroline Lucas said the outcome after years of waiting was "a complete disaster". She said: "What have we got? An empty accord with no legally binding framework, no targets, and no money guaranteed to be over and above existing aid budgets. It's deeply, deeply disappointing." Friends of the Earth campaigner Tom Picken said the UK government had said it would fight for a "strong and fair agreement" but the accord was neither." – BBC
