In this week’s episode of London Calling, James and I discuss James’s recent walking holiday in Shropshire, which was ruined by “bird-chomping eco-crucifixes”; the efforts of Animal Rising to disrupt the Grand National; why animal rights’ activists have a blind spot about the suffering inflicted on animals by other animals; the decision by Welsh National Parks to rename the Brecon Beacons because the word ‘Beacon’ refers to a giant wood-burning brazier which is “not a good look”, according to Brecon’s CEO; the growing scandal in Australia over the Bureau of Meteorology’s refusal to reveal climate data that undermines the case for Net Zero; why the arguments of many climate alarmists is similar to Pascal’s Wager; why we should try to inject some realism into the climate debate, in spite of James’s pessimism; and, in Culture Corner, Tetris, Air, the Last Kingdom film and War Sailor.
