I've been thinking about this a bit as the US anti-ESG movement got its early momentum from the local pools of capital controlled by ideologues but it's not like Staffs council was a socialist haven before yday. Curious to see either way given Tice's attacks on ESG in the PCPF

I really thought financial journalism would involve a lot more hiding in carparks and receiving stolen documents and less spending my Friday morning searching up various pork-related cases at the US Supreme Court. The puns write themselves.
