A pox on YouTube. For some inexplicable reason, it decided we were violating its terms of service. Many apologies to those who tried to tune in. It was a great discussion. FridaysForFuture will edit it and stream it soon.

Freedom to roam is a right as fundamental as freedom of speech. When the lockdown ends, let's claim it.
My column.

The history of exclusion in the UK is fascinating, horrific and scarcely known to most people. I mention a few examples of the outrageous theft of our rights, some of which continue to this day.
We have a long-standing myth in the UK that the countryside is a place of innocence and freedom. But in some ways it is far more exclusive and cruel than the cities, and has been for centuries.

Let's not bail out the airlines.
Let's not bail out the oil companies.
Let's emerge from the pandemic into a new, green economy.
To bail out the airlines in response to the pandemic is to address one catastrophe by promoting an even bigger one.
And instead of Richard Branson offering his private island as collateral for a government bailout, why doesn't he sell the island and use his own assets to support his own companies?
He wants to remain as rich as Croesus, while the government saves his business.

Immigrant (noun), definition: A person demonised in newspapers owned by foreign or expatriate billionaires, until said newspapers discover that the country would collapse without them, whereupon their arrival on these shores is celebrated, until said newspapers forget again.
Please note: there is no commonly agreed term in English for the opposite of an immigrant. This is because, when we try to settle on one, we immediately run into the fact that we all got here from somewhere else.
Yes, bloody Anglo-Saxons. Coming over here with their own language and their own culture, insistently and offensively disregarding British customs.
