Independent PR giant Edelman said it will “part ways with clients” that don’t adhere to its new environmental, social and governance guidelines, following a 60-day review of over 330 clients conducted in response to pressure from climate activists. ow.ly/HLY750Hq5Xy

Edelman says it will drop clients that don't meet its ESG standards, though activists are skeptical

The statement follows a 60-day assessment conducted by the PR giant.

All the integrity of Brooks Newmark’s pyjamas. When Labour needed Owen, he was lauding (Tory voter!) Galloway. The brocialists thought we needed them, today proved otherwise. We won despite their disgusting campaign trying to help the Tories. The brocialists can all do one.

Which presumably means it'll be Tory policy in a few years 🤔 Really exciting to see the rise of B Corps. Businesses committing to doing good is outrageously long overdue. Hope we see more in the PR world follow though (espesh the ESG advisors 👀) ft.com/content/89f1c72c-aab5…

Boris and Rishi's bold plan to save the economy was to encourage half the country to splash out on a family Christmas and force the other half to spend big on planes, trains, tiny leftover turkeys and Deliveroo

After two days of (conveniently timed) training in Central London, I am retreating, like a squirrel, for a nationally mandated winter hibernation to the suburbs. But first, one last vital errand...
