Graham Stuart resigned from the government after eight years on Friday, saying it was the right time to step down.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cypru-video-ads\" id=\"cypru-351894960\">\n<div

again for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak\u2019s Conservatives in an election expected later this year, with the opposition Labour Party leading in polls by a large margin.<br \/>\n\u201cHaving served as a minister for most of the last eight years I have decided that now is the time to stand down,\u201d he said in a letter to Sunak posted on social media platform X.<br \/>\n\u201cI will continue to give you my full support from the backbenches.\u201d<br \/>\nSunak\u2019s office said Justin Tomlinson, a former junior minister in the work and pensions department, would replace Stuart as climate minister.<br \/>\nStuart represented Britain at last year\u2019s COP28 climate summit in Dubai, although he attracted criticism from campaigners when he flew back to London for a vote on a policy to send asylum seekers to Rwanda while the outcome of climate talks remained in the balance.<br \/>\nStuart then returned to Dubai before the summit concluded.<br \/>\nSunak thanked Stuart for his efforts in supporting Britain\u2019s efforts in the clean energy transition, including the target to reach net zero emissions by 2050.<br \/>\n\u201cI understand your desire to step down as a minister,\u201d Sunak said in a letter to Stuart.<br \/>\n\u201cThese jobs are all-consuming and you have served in Government almost continuously since 2016.\u201d<br \/>\nStuart, who was appointed to his climate role in September 2022, also held junior roles in the foreign and trade ministries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Britain&#8217;s climate change minister Graham
