Video clips during the visit show the Queen expressing her frustration over a lack of action to tackle climate change as she discusses Cop26 with Camilla and Elin Jones, the parliament’s presiding officer.
In the footage, the monarch says: “Extraordinary isn’t it… I’ve been hearing all about Cop… still don’t know who is coming… no idea.”
She adds: “We only know about people who are not coming… and it’s really irritating when they talk, but they don’t do.”
Charles and William have also spoken out about this environment recently in separate BBC interviews.
The Duke of Cambridge told the corporation “we can’t have more clever speak, clever words but not enough action”.
And when it was suggested world leaders would discuss at Cop26 the issues he has been raising for years, Charles said: “They just talk, the problem is to get action on the ground which is what I’ve been trying to do for the last 40 years.”
