Who's Who the f***?!
Gabriel Syme (London)  Sui Generis

George Monbiot aka Moonbat has joined the great and the good in the 2004 edition of Who's Who, described as environmentalist and writer.

Oh dear.

(in today's Telegraph's print edition)

Comments

The Grauniad has given him a big space on the Comment and Opinion page (where he attacks the Adam Smith Institute, who must be striking a nerve). It's illustrated by a huge caricature of a white capitalist, complete with cigar, pulling teeth from a helpless brown victim.

Next to Moonbat's column is another 'Opinion and Comment' piece, straightforwardly bearing the byline 'Osama Bin Laden.' I wonder if the Guardian is paying him, or if they're violating his copyright?

Incidentally, Moonbat is not only an 'environmentalist and writer' - he's also a political leader.
