2024 Wooden Spoon Winner - Rishi Sunak MP

This category recognises the UK's biggest environmental duffers.

The Wooden Spoon was introduced in 2024 to highlight the UK politicians who have done the most to stifle environmental progress or actively perpetuate the destruction of nature.

The 2024 'Wooden Spoon' award was presented to Rishi Sunak, for granting 50 new oil and gas drilling licenses, pushing back the UK's net-zero target, along with a host of other damaging environmental policies.
