Exciting news! The new executive director of Greenpeace USA was nicked last week, on his very first day in the job. Phil Radford, just 33, was part of a team who hung a huge banner from a crane near the US state
department: The banner said “Stop Global Warming. Rescue the Planet”, and that is exactly what Radford has said he is planning to do.

Whether it's 29p an hour for their workers in India, or recent allegations of 7p an hour for their Bangladeshi graftsmen, activists arrived geared up and prepped to voice their outrage at Primark's exploitative and despicable policies outside the TUC building (Trade Union Congress Centre) in central London this morning - just as those in the ivory towers of the corporation sat down for their cosy AGM.
