If man-made global warming is killing Africans, as the climate change alarmists suggest, shouldn’t we reduce our carbon footprint? Tesco did just that, says Dominic Lawson, and reduced by two-thirds their fruit and veg imports from East Africa. The result: poorer Africans.
“All it does is make Tesco look better in North London. I find it repulsive,” Lawson said on 18 Doughty Street television .
This clip shows a 15-minute discussion which you’re unlikely to see from mainstream British broadcasters who seem to view their role as ‘raising awareness’ rather than debating. The success of Channel Four’s Great Global Warming Swindle documentary was largely due to relief that a broadcaster did not treat audiences like kids, unable to decide facts for themselves. 18 Doughty Street’s logo is “politics for adults” and it provides just that in this clip.
