英国改革党在近期召开的党代大会上,围绕气候科学问题展现出党内立场的复杂性。1副领导人理查德·蒂斯在会议期间继续倡导气候怀疑论,多次呼吁民众享受夏季的连续热浪和创纪录干旱现象。1这些表述遭到批评标语的反驳,其中一条宣称"募集500万英镑,焚烧地球",随后被撤下。1
党内对此并无统一态度。支持蒂斯观点的成员詹妮特·鲍登表示:"我享受了今年夏天的炎热,我不认为需要告诉人们照顾好自己"。1她的搭档詹姆斯则进一步质疑人为气候变化的科学共识,声称"二氧化碳在过去要高得多,在冰河时代高出10倍。这不是人类问题"。1本次大会举行之际,改革党官员因被控规避外国捐款法律而成为卧底调查的焦点。1
Reform UK's deputy leader Richard Tice continued to promote climate change denial at the party's conference, with supporters largely endorsing his skeptical stance toward scientific consensus on human-caused global warming.1 Tice has repeatedly urged people to enjoy consecutive summer heat waves and record droughts.1
At the conference, supporter Janet Bowden stated, "I enjoyed the heat this summer, and I don't think we need to tell people to look after themselves."1 Her partner James claimed that "carbon dioxide was much higher in the past—ten times higher during ice ages—so this is not a human problem."1
A banner reading "Raise 5 million pounds, burn the planet" appeared at the event before being removed.1
The conference took place following recent undercover investigations that revealed Reform Party officials were allegedly attempting to circumvent foreign donation laws.1
