Former Labour leader Ed Miliband has said "Theresa May is sending a signal that she is weak and feeble and spineless" by not properly criticising President Trump for pulling the US out of the 2015 Paris climate agreement.

Mr Miliband, who was also climate change secretary under Gordon Brown until 2010, told Martha Kearney: "If ever there was a moment when Britain needed a strong leader it was now and it turns out we've got an incredibly weak one who is missing in action."

He said that the reason a British response matters is that "the Paris agreement was a fragile thing and a hard thing to negotiate" and it's important that the rest of the world now says that the US is "a pariah of the international community" for withdrawing.
