1/🧵 Sad to announce that Britain's only national weekly climate column has been shut down by new editor of The Independent - Geordie Greig . As editor of Daily Mail Greig led Mail's war on COP26, climate action & climate protectors Christian Broughton Harriet Williamson Victoria Richards Independent Voices
4/🧵 Until now, Lebedev was the media oligarchic exception. Appointing Christian Broughton & David Marples who rightly & in progressive (until now) tradition of The Independent prioritised the climate emergency & commissioned the climate column - sadly ONLY UK editors to do so to date.
5/🧵 If the climate movement does not address the war on climate action by the UK & global media oligarchy, humanity faces almost certain utter climatic apocalypse. Geoffrey Lean Media Tell The Truth XR XR Writers Rebel Gail Bradbrook Just Stop Oil Roger Hallam Roger Harrabin
6/🧵 As editor of Mail Geordie Greig promoted corrupt Tory think-tank Policy Exchange attack on Extinction Rebellion Global .Report was drawn up by corrupt Met Police officer who had been thrown out of Met 4 spying on Lawrence family. Policy Exchange notorious as secretly funded oil propaganda
7/🧵 Mail under Geordie Greig demanded Sunak refuse to fund even Johnson's tepid Cop26 proposals. Intimating Mail would back Sunak coup replacement of Johnson if he obeyed Mail.
9/ Thus Sunak by obeying Greig's Mail totally undermined Rt Hon Lord Alok Sharma presidency of Cop26. Thus helping ensure Cop26 itself failed to keep last hope of 1.5C alive. UN now says no path left to 1.5C.
10/🧵 I would thus argue that Geordie Greig is one of the world's most destructive carbon criminals. He should not have been given the editorship of 1 of Britain's tiny number of climate action advocating national media outlets at the whim of another media oligarch.
