- In the hottest year on record, the UK’s billionaire-owned national newspapers are still busy convincing millions that the climate crisis is either not real, or not serious.
To recognise their starring role in setting everyone’s future on fire, Extinction Rebellion launched the Porky Pie Press Awards for the Most Climate Wrecking National Newspapers of 2024.
BBC wildlife legend Chris Packham announces the winners and runners up - and the XR showbiz team present Golden Porky Pies to stunned newspaper editors and staff

It's not just planet-warming, but heartwarming to witness the newspaper writers being too humble to accept their rewards. So inspiring 🤔
Thank you to everyone who took part, especially Chris!
Chris Packham is a legend! And well XR, keep up the great work.
Some people are ill 🙈
😮
Total legend! ❤
@@Lisa-nn6no ❤
The Daily Fail never ceases to exasperate...
😔
😢😢😢😢
Fantastic work XR, thank you to all involved
😮
Absolutely!!!
Can't they all get the award Chris? I'd also add GB NEWS UK, Tory Mouthpiece 😉 😂
GB News is corrupt. Get Mogg Off..Esther McVey 😢😢 corrupt
Great how he walked off 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
The Daily Fail and The Sun have rightly been seen as hideous, dystopian comics for decades but it is sad that The Torygraph has joined them. It was always the Tory party newsletter but has plummeted still lower to appeal to the ignorant gammonati
Brilliant! Tongue in cheek & painfully true 🤣🥵😪🤬
Brilliant - such heartfelt showmanship, so professionally delivered.
Thank you for this keen action. Im going to write to the media that they earn this award.
🥺
Wonderful. Thanks everyone ❤️
😢😢😢😢😢😢
YEY ! ! ! GO CHRIS ! Thanks so much for doing this. XXX
🫣
Brilliant!!!
A true tragicomedy! Amazing stuff. 💚
😢😢😢😢😢
🤯
Im just looking at the Apocalyptic flooding in Dubai, together with floods in the South West of the Uk 🇬🇧 destroying food crops etc etc, You cannot deny that's Not Climate Emergency 😅 The Guardian is normally quite accurate at reporting the truth 💚
More farm shops but not posh ones😢
You clearly read a different Guardian than I!
I can because its called geongineering mate, used worldwide to create the illusion of climate change , Tennessee has just BANNED geoengineering , some conspiracy .
Great stuff -- Chris P was on top form, and the XR crew made a sterling effort at keeping straight faces
Brilliant and thank you to all involved 👍🏼🙏
Brilliant, So very much needed.
Thank you both XR and Chris for calling this out.
There is also the sin of omission. For example, the most woke, liberal cable news in the US, MSNBC never, ever speaks to it. So, I nominate them.
Doing their masters bidding. 🤢
😢
Well done XR.
😟
Fantastic!!!
Thank you so much for doing this with such cutting humour. Bless you all. XXXXXX
😮
Just keep being you!
It's likely the most wind up of all I've seen XR
Congratulations to all the lucky winners!
Very well done!
😮
Very creative, i laughed a lot
It was. But they wrecked our rights. GB News is terrible 😢
Brilliant work. Thank you so much for your diligence and bravery x
Fabulous!
So brilliant - thanks everyone - great laughs...

What you need is someone in a Pinocchio outfit to present the winners with their awards.
The rich girl with the enormous stone...on the pink, LOL
😮😮😮😮😮
we are all going to ☠ aren't we?
😢
Brilliant!
A few days of 42degs C will concentrate public minds wonderfully.
So Good! Well done, Crew
😮
Methinks it is an excellent award of recognition.
❤
Pork pies are very bad 😢 and farm shops. But farm shops are very beautiful and have a massive potential. 😢 They are very corrupt now. They could be very wonderful
Okay, let's play Spot the Talent:
who can name any of the good folks featured in front of the camera at the awards ceremony on the street in front of the camera?
I notice Led By Donkey is doing well online 😢
😮
Great works
HILARIOUS!
I love this so much 😂❤
😂🤣😂 Brilliant!!!
Brilliant
Classic 👌
Brilliant. There should be a follow up -" Just Desserts" awards!
I don't know...looking at the comments here everybody was on board with this satire...I it found emblematic of the serious messaging flaw in the media on the climate shotgun we're looking down the barrel of.....predictably childish and dismissive....we don't need banal satire, we don't need elementary school level information...the time for that is long gone...the time for "sit ins" passed in the sixties....we, as a planet, are in a whole new dimension.There needs to be REALLY heavy discussions with all the seriousness that is required...time is short.
I'd point you to watching a meeting held in the 1990s with Carl Sagan, in the US, where he clearly and succinctly explained that if the Western countries did not divest from fossil fuels, namely oil, then the consequences would be extremely dire for humanity and the planet, in other words, humans would destroy planet Earth and it would be in the foreseeable future.
Satire can succeed in bringing attention to the facts of the matter, and this video and action is successful in doing that. It's a fact that not enough people take notice of serious information and as for discussion, that's been done to death for decades now, the facts are there, the information is available the consequences are staring us in the face. Leaders of so many countries know absolutely what the consequences of their catastrophic inaction and their deliberate misconduct in handing out deals to big corporations to extract more planet wrecking oil and gas will be. Let's not forget the mega rich are actually building underground bunkers for themselves, equipped with all the requirements to sustain life and a good one at that. No need to spend their billions upon billions of dollars on actually working on a future for the planet, where our kids and grandkids will be able to survive. That's not looking too possible right now, action is needed now, but the greedy and powerful are winning, as you say, it's now or never. Action not words, or be destroyed, it's that simple.
The Sagan discussion was held in 1985, he warned the US and the world in general, about catastrophic climate change due to oil extraction etc, more or less saying that it was going to be a close call if action to divest was not taken without delay. Sigh, look at what happened instead. Criminals.
There arent thousands of views. Everyone must have been there
We are locked in conflict....... TV gameshows
Really heavy discussions have been in progress for decades - IPCC meetings and COPnn meetings.
Not enough is being done, still, because the fight back by the extremely wealthy is more effective than sober, accurate science no matter how often people are told about the disaster happening.
Democracy, protest, civil disturbance, accurate reporting, satire, extreme climate disasters etc all seem to be failing to get the results we need.
I have no idea what will succeed but satire and protests like this ∆∆∆ is as good as anything
🎉
😮
this is amazing, thank you
😂 Chris was on fire 🔥
Great stuff,you guys,love it
Algo boost! Generally speaking Lana Del Rey Plaza Del Rey
😊
As climate decay moves inexorably forward, some are just not old enough to know,
what the sound of a male skylark full territory song in June.....
is like to hear... and what that ultimate English song bird ,dose to the soul. Now critically endangered. :( :( :( and sings no more, the sky is empty of song..... long live XR
Can we have one about EV misinformation and scummy lies.
😂😂😂yes! You make how fucked we are truly a lot of fun. That’s the way 👍🏻🪄💖
It would be funnier if it were not true!
Nice! Of course we are all hoping that Hansen is incorrect, otherwise it's even worse than most climate activists think. E.g.both Aerosols and GHGs are more powerful and the faustian bargain locks us into even less palatable options. In that case we would need a new "useful idiot" award category for those that have promoted incremental-change / unicorn-tech, and have failed to be suitably alarmed.
Long
Good idea but I feel that the overdresed women did the movement any favours, giving the impression that we don't take the whole thing seriously. Fuel for the fire really.
So sorry to learn of your depression...seek help maybe..🤔
😢

What is the problem with questioning "climate science"? The whole point of science is to be questioned.
Absolutely right! And scientists are constantly improving their models in order to better align them with the vast amounts of real time data now being gathered 24/7 from satellites, balloons, bouys, research vessels, land based monitoring stations etc.. The problem is the telling of straight out lies and the spreading of misinformation, by the fossil fuel sponsored media owned by foreign tax dodgers.
There's nothing wrong with having questions for climatologists and those in related fields. You just need to be willing to accept the answers.
@@Richard482 That just leaves you with the problem of choosing which scientists to believe. One of the most qualified climate scientists is Richard Lindzen. He is not on board with the climate hoax and neither is Roy Spencer and John Christy who get the satellite data. Judith Curry does not believe it, either.
Neither did the state climatologists who were fired because they would not believe the approved narrative. Curry was no longer able carry out research once her views were known.
The IPCC write a climate report but the part that is released to the media is written by politicians not scientists. Those are the views that get propagated.
If what we are told about the climate is all true then there would be no need to fire, censure and ban any dissenting voices.
Fantastic!!!
Fantastic!!!
