David Lammy Spends Over £1 Million on Private Flights in Three Months – Guido Fawkes

Co-conspirators may remember foreign secretary David Lammy’s lavish private jet habit racking up a bill of £916,177 on flights in the first three months after the election. Learjet Lammy has only become more travel-hungry since then…

Newly released official figures show that in the three months from October to December Lammy has racked up a whopping £1,230,611.39 bill for flights, the majority of which is made up of costs from his jaunts on the largest jet in the ministerial fleet, an Airbus A321-251NX(LR). Private flights accounted for £1,088,549.06 of the total bill. Will anyone think of the environment?

That’s a substantial increase of 34.3% on the three months prior. For every day that went by David Lammy spent £14,650 on air travel…

FCDO ministers in that period spent a total of £1,368,679.56 on overseas travel. They managed to visit in that time the USA, Malawi, Zambia, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Israel, Palestine, Germany, France, China, Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, the Philippines, South Korea, Indonesia, Nigeria, South Africa, Barbados, Guyana, Bahrain, Jordan, Italy, Moldova, Belgium, Malta, Luxembourg, Samoa, Ireland, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Grenada, Colombia, Jamaica, The Bahamas, Seychelles, Ethiopia, Fiji, Anguilla, the British Virgin Islands, Turkey, Iceland, Norway. Is Starmer soon to tell David that “the view on the ground is very different to that from his private jet”…
