Rishi Sunak most frequent UK flyer among recent PMs
PM Rishi Sunak has used RAF jets and helicopters for domestic flights more frequently than the UK’s three previous PMs, according to the BBC.
Data shows he took almost one such flight a week during his first seven months in office.
The PM has been accused of hypocrisy for flying short journeys domestically, given his carbon emissions pledges.
But Sunak has said air travel was the “most effective use of my time”.
In total, PM Sunak boarded 23 domestic flights on these aircraft in 187 days, which is one every eight days on average.
