Alok Sharma is furious with Boris Johnson for talking up the COP26 summit as a make or break moment for the planet, it was claimed today, amid Cabinet fears the event will be a 'damp squib'.
The COP26 President is said to be 'raging' at the Prime Minister for 'ramping up' hopes of a major climate change breakthrough in Glasgow when world leaders meet at the end of the month.
Some ministers believe the Government's messaging ahead of the summit has been too bullish and is 'completely out of control'.
The claims came after the summit suffered a significant blow as Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed he is not attending the event.
