Blatant lobbying, not for the sake of our country, but for the fossil fuel industry, in which almost all the ultrarich - including, in all likelihood, the proprietors of these newspapers - are heavily invested. These people are not and never will be your friends. www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-uk-...

Stewart Lee: How do all these rightwing astroturfers get on the airwaves? Doesn’t anyone Google them first?
From Aston Villa to George Abaraonye, every time the culture wars flare up, there’s a ‘concerned citizen’ from a previously unheard-of pressure group popping up. A little scepticism is needed

You have to keep pointing out this ridiculous, obvious, weapons grade absurdity, moral corruption & hypocrisy. Even - no, *especially* - when you’re wondering whether it’s even worth it anymore… It’s *always* worth it.
