‘I’m very keen on bunnies’: Boris Johnson’s father Stanley defends rabbits after PM mocks climate activists Jane Dalton © Provided by The Independent
The prime minister’s father says he is “very keen on bunnies” and that “bunny-hugging” is an affectionate term, after Boris Johnson used the phrase to take a swipe at environmental idealists.
At a virtual summit over action to curb rising greenhouse gases and sea levels, the PM told world leaders: “It’s vital for all of us to show that this is not all about some expensive, politically correct, green act of bunny-hugging, or however you want to put it. There’s nothing wrong with bunny hugging but you know what I’m driving at.”

The UK s climate tsar, Alok Sharma, has been urged to resign unless the prime minister scraps plans for a new coal mine in Cumbria.
Mr Sharma, who will lead a vital UN climate conference in Glasgow in November, is said to be apoplectic over the decision to approve the mine.
The Lib Dems say the project, earmarked for a site near Whitehaven, undermines Mr Sharma s position.
They have called for him to tender his resignation over the issue.
