Across Europe, conspiratorial influencers who amassed big audiences during Covid have turned to the climate farmers' protests. This is starting to impact elections, including the UK's. My first for @RollingStone with @SamShepEdwards @alessioperrone

Alors que la journaliste Ariane Lavrilleux est en garde à vue et que son domicile a été perquisitionné, le gouvernement reste silencieux.

In Spain climate change plays almost no role in electoral campaigns or manifestos, mainly to the lack of attention to the issue by mainstream parties. One explanation is that public mass mobilisation on climate change has not yet occurred ejpr.onlinelibrary.wiley.com…
