Exclusive: Paul Marshall also challenged over his own ‘misleading’ statements and £1.8bn of fossil fuel investments in his hedge fund
The co-owner of GB News and “committed” Christian Sir Paul Marshall has been criticised by a group of church leaders over the TV channel’s attacks on climate science and action.
The hedge fund manager was also challenged over his own statements, which were called “misleading”, by the 100-strong group, which includes the former archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams and two current bishops.
Marshall said recently that the UK had been infected by “climate derangement syndrome” and that efforts to cut planet-heating emissions were “impoverishing people”.
The Christian leaders also raised the £1.8bn of fossil fuel investments reportedly held in 2023 by the hedge fund Marshall manages and asked him to be transparent about any personal conflicts of interest.
