The Queen has been caught on camera blasting ‘irritating’ world leaders over their lack of action on climate change.

At the opening of the sixth Welsh Parliament, in Cardiff, the Monarch was overheard making the remarks during a conversation with the Duchess of Cornwall and presiding officer of the Senedd, Elin Jones.

Speaking about the upcoming Cop26 conference in Glasgow, where world leaders will gather to address climate change, she said: “Extraordinary, isn’t it. I’ve been hearing all about Cop … still don’t know who is coming. No idea.

“We only know about people who are not coming. It’s really irritating when they talk, but they don’t do.”

In agreement, Jones replied: “Exactly. It’s a time for doing … and watching your grandson [Prince William] on the television this morning saying there’s no point going to space, we need to save the Earth.”

The Queen then smiled, saying: “Yes, I read about it.”

The politician was referring to the Duke of Cambridge’s interview with BBC’s Newscast at Kensington Palace, in which he appeared to rebuke Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezo sending Star Trek‘s William Shatner to space

The Duke said: “We need some of the world’s greatest brains and minds fixed on trying to repair this planet, not trying to find the next place to go and live.”

Prince William also recently shared his thoughts on the upcoming Cop26 summit, which several members of the Royal Family plan to attend. 

He said: “I think for Cop to communicate very clearly and very honestly what the problems are and what the solutions are going to be, is critical.

“We can’t have more clever speak, clever words but not enough action.”
