I can’t help feeling that the proximity of a sizable spherical medal does nothing for Queen Victoria’s figure.

Queen Victoria, London

It’s one of those stunts that charities have to do to get coverage from the likes of us. In this case, Friends of the Earth want to promote clean British energy and encourage you to switch your supplier.

The press release is here.

Friends of the Earth are on Twitter – @wwwfoecouk
