“If the polar bears leapt from the pages of my fiction into reality and saw what was happening, they’d eat us. Eat as many of us as quickly as they possibly could. And good luck to them.” January 22, 2008 5:59 am | link

“Magnificent” Interesting though, that its only an extract of a longer interview - published in full in Do Good Lives Have to Cost the Earth? Really want to read the whole thing January 22, 2008 10:18 am | link

“That’s what I reckon, but it won’t happen because governments are too feeble. Governments are feeble now because all the Western governments have bought into the orthodoxy that the market knows best. And the market bloody well doesn’t know best, the market is what got us into this mess. Every social bond, everything that we thought was firm and established, gets wiped away. It is wiped away by money, by the mighty force, this universal acid of the market system. Magnificent.” So he’s one of those.. That’s unfortunate. I still like his books :).
