Dirty Money

It was the annual Campaign Against Climate Change march in London today.

Climate change seems to have dropped off the radar of the mainstream media, but it hasn't gone away. The Occupy movement have noticed that the reasons we aren't dealing with climate change are much the same as the reasons we are not dealing with corporate tax avoidance or banking reform - lobbying by well-funded vested interests. Consequently the march seemed better attended, and perhaps more energised, than it did last year.

The Koch brothers of course, are the main corporate funders of the Occupy movement's ersatz predecessor - the US Tea Party.

A good day, in delightful company. Despite the previous night spent in a crowded, rather smelly tent at St Paul's.
