Billionaire philanthropy isn’t charity.
It’s PR to distract you from low wages, labor exploitation, and a tax system that’s rigged for the rich.

But for Prof Jules Pretty, there's plenty of good news after COP30. Solar costs are plunging, EV adoption is soaring and countries choosing renewables are saving billions. The story is turning. Read the good news here ⤵️

Look, this French publication correctly labels Farage as the leader of a far right party (even if it’s technically a limited company).
Why does the British mainstream media seem to have a different definition?
He is simply called ‘the leader of Reform UK’, which makes him sound innocuous.
