Sound corporate PR needs to be backed by research. Across Europe, funders like Pfizer and Exxon Mobil are directing increasing sums to fund more US-style pro-corporate 'think tanks'; they are relatively cheap to fund, and 'wonk-slotting' - setting friendly experts up with companies - is an open secret.

Climate change sceptics are a group of vocal, yet frighteningly influencial, individuals who appear regularly in the papers and on TV, lining up to deny there's any problem with global warming. However, even though much of their diatribe has been discredited, they're still around. Come out, come out wherever you are climate change deniers; your time’s up. By Jennie Bailey and Owen English.

The final part of the Dodgy Development: DFID in India series by Eshwarappa M and Richard Whittell, published by Corporate Watch over the past few months, focuses on the British government's Department for International Development's funding of civil society organisations. This part comprises a film and two interviews. The film, False Promises, looks at the 'Business Partners for Development' project, funded by the DFID, which convinced people to allow a coal company to mine their lands with devastating results. In the two interviews that conclude the series, two people's organisation activists discuss why groups like theirs should not take the DFID's money and argue for the importance and necessity of international, people to people solidarity. Preceding parts of the series can be found here.

What does social responsibility mean? That is for society to decide rather than corporations. Social responsibility must at least mean not damaging society, responding to critical social problems and acting in the social interest. Let's raise the bar a little.

Wednesday, 5th May: The People’s Jury @ the BAE AGM
BAE has once again escaped justice but we’re not letting them off the hook. Join ‘People’s Jury’ at BAE’s AGM to give BAE the people’s judgement on their corporate ‘ethics’.
Here’s the plan:
10am: Meet at Kingsgate House (66-74 Victoria Street, SW1E 6SW), home to the government’s arms sales department (the UKTI).
At 10.15 we’ll chase a giant Dick Olver away from the office that gives him so much support to the BAE AGM where we will pursue justice inside and outside of the building.
10.30am-12 noon Outside QEII Conference centre, Broad Sanctuary, London, SW1P 3EE (Westminster), where the ‘People’s Jury’ will be held.
The event is co-ordinated by CAAT’s Universities Network. For more info, see http://baepeoplesjury.wordpress.com.
