The Cameron administration has a firm aspiration to be the ‘greenest government ever‘, but the reality is turning out to be quite different. Alongside having a transport secretary who advocates gas-guzzling changes to public policy, and continuing to encourage road-building in a time of austerity, it turns out that the person almost certain to head up the coalition’s environment and energy policy is a former BP policy advisor.

Incessant, proscribing and one-note, they are the spoilers; the people who like to belch on our bluefin tuna before telling us why we shouldn’t be eating it in the first place. If climate change activists don’t get on your goat, that’s because you’re one of them.
