Back in Brussels. Not to present Brexit news, but to speak to MEPs at the European Parliament. They want to hear about Sky TV’s campaign against plastic pollution. It feels dangerously liberating, presenting an argument with the conviction of an activist, rather than with the even-handedness of a referee.
The case, however, is pretty robust. Even my wife, a sceptic on climate change, gets fired up about the way we throw away so much single-use plastic. She is the kind of woman who will pick up, rather than walk around, other people’s litter. So for her, plastic marine pollution is just plain bad manners.
