Many other SNP MPs also took to Twitter/X to criticise the speech. Pete Wishart said: “What an insipid King’s Speech. “Their short-sighted actions can only make climate breakdown worse and will continue to do so at the expense of future generations unless they can be prevented.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
