Radical action on climate change should be the many versus the few, not the young versus the old.

Standard Chartered's sponsorship of Liverpool FC is a cynical attempt to buy a social license to profit from fossil fuel finance.

The Labour party in government should nationalise banks that continue to invest in fossil fuels.
