Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 June 2026

Debate

Sporting Events Bill [HL]

Contribution

In two years we will be in the middle of the 2028 Euros. There is every likelihood that we will be facing roughly the same or, worse, higher temperatures than those this week. If we fail to take action now, there is every possibility that we will look back and wish we had done something while we still had the chance. These amendments make a start on doing that. I appreciate that those bodies and others are already looking at it on a voluntary basis, but it is important that this is built into our whole strategy in relation to climate change and that we have some leadership on this issue.
