Hypocrite of high flight: Dame Thompson is seen Friday morning on a British Airways flight connecting Heathrow to JFK, despite previous claims: "We should all fly less"
Left-wing actress Dame Emma Thompson was described as a first-clbad hypocrite last night after leaving for New York just days after the climate protests that brought chaos to London.
Jeremy Corbyn's fan went to his personal booth in the luxury cabin of a British Airways flight connecting Heathrow to JFK on Friday morning, after demanding earlier: "We should all fly less."
First clbad BA flights to New York cost up to £ 18,000 and generate nearly two tonnes of carbon dioxide – the main climate change factor – for every pbadenger in the Elite cabin.
Spectators claim that the multimillionaire activist also drank Laurent-Perrier champagne and dined on a beef carpaccio – although cattle farming is also a major contributor to greenhouse gases.
Lady Emma has also previously called on people to eat less meat in the name of "preserving the planet".
Cows produce methane – a gas 23 times more powerful than carbon dioxide – while clearing forests for pasture and for feeding livestock, also contributes to global warming.
Lady Emma, aged 60, joined the Extinction rebellion demonstrations that blocked blocks of central London aboard a pink boat used by activists to block Oxford Circus.
The group wants to limit air travel and even unsuccessfully tried to close Heathrow Airport, from where it left Friday at 11:20 for an eight hour trip. Its share of the carbon dioxide generated by the flight was the same as that emitted by heating an average home for nine months.
Aged 60, he traveled 5,400 kilometers from Los Angeles to join the protestors of Extinction Rebellion who took streets in the streets of London, closing Waterloo Bridge for days and immobilizing Oxford Circus.

Lady Emma has been seen at 2F – one of the most exclusive seats aboard the Boeing 777-200, which can only accommodate 14 wealthy pbadengers in the first clbad cabin.
Dame Emma, who has already defended the Meat Free Monday movement and whose goal is to raise public awareness of the environmental damage caused by meat consumption, said: "Caught up by the cattle that produce all this methane".
Extinction Rebellion believes that there is now a 'climate crisis' and suggested that flights be used only in emergency situations.
Lady Emma had already been criticized after traveling 5,400 miles from her 60th birthday party in Los Angeles to join their protests over the Easter weekend.

"I am so proud and excited to be part of Extinction Rebellion. We must be here, we must do it. It's sometimes embarrbading for people, but it's a lot more embarrbading to leave a planet so completely destroyed, "she told protesters in a speech against a big pink boat.
Lady Emma added, "It's very difficult to do my job without flying occasionally, even though I fly a lot less than I did.

"We have to be here, we have to be here. It is sometimes embarrbading for people but it is much more embarrbading to leave a planet so completely destroyed. "
At the time, the group defended its celebrity. He insisted that the tons of carbon that his flight produced for her during their demonstration was "a regrettable cost for our biggest fight to save the planet".
Lady Emma added, "It's very difficult to do my job without flying occasionally, even though I fly a lot less than I did.
"Yes, it is a misfortune and inconvenience and we are often involved in situations where we will be hypocritical, but if we do not do it, we fail our children and our grandchildren."

Lady Emma says that she has planted trees to make up for her world tour, saying, "I am very lucky to be able to offset my carbon footprint, but most people can not."
But she insisted: "We should all fly less, the future of this planet is at stake and that may be more important than our own reputation."

A spokesman for the rebellion Extinction said, "If Emma Thompson wants to come help, it's great: she uses her platform which is extremely valuable to anyone. If it is going around the world like a climate lawyer, it may seem counterproductive in the short term, but we are looking at the bigger picture. "
But last night, critics called the excuses nonsense.
Conservative MP David Morris said, "It's typical of the left: do what I say, not what I do. Lady Emma Thompson is clearly a first clbad hypocrite and a champagne socialist. "
