Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage have been announced as speakers at the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) conference later this month alongside close allies of President Donald Trump and his anti-climate agenda, DeSmog can reveal.
ARC is a network of influential right-wing figures from across the world, and the group claims that its conference in London will “work to re-lay the foundations of civilisation”.
The Conservative and Reform UK leaders will be speaking alongside individuals who have called climate change a “hoax”, have said that global warming “is probably doing good”, and have called climate activists “eco fascists”.
ARC is backed by the UAE-based investment firm Legatum Group and British hedge fund millionaire Paul Marshall, who together own the right-wing broadcaster GB News. Marshall provided £1 million in funding to ARC in 2023, which is run by Conservative peer and UK government advisor Baroness Stroud.
Why do all far-right governments always have the EXACT same beliefs and agendas globally?
That’s going to have quite a toxic atmosphere, and given the high overlap with flat earthers, the music’s probably rather out-of-tune too.

Authors of Broken Britain both.
Just the boost the already stupefied-by-unicorn-grazing-alternative-reality need.
The really important question is… will I get into this with crossed legs and an empty drinks bottle?
I dare them to have that speech in front of qualified scientists.
Viva style…
They would crumble and likely cry
sad. the one thing i really found the tories actually got right was *most* of their climate policy.
Denying climate change, at this point, is like denying that the sky is blue.

I feel like it pretty obvious that climate change denial is the wrong point of view based on the fact that all the biggest cunts are deniers. That and all the empirical evidence that shows climate change is a huge problem we face.
I went to a birthday last week that I thought was the lamest party I could have gone to.
But now I’ve just read about the mother-lode. Lordy, imagine going to this…
“ARC 2025 will be held at the ‘ExCeL London’ and the price of a ticket is £1,500.”
The price is definitely like Glastonbury.
These people are like caricatures of ‘stupid populist politician’
Imagine voting for either of them 😂
When I see zelensky come out and give a speech at Glastonbury that’s when I new knew Glastonbury is dead
Definitely going to this. About time the climate scam was highlighted more.
Still waiting for that £300 less energy bill by climate loon Miliband. Even head of GB energy said it could take 20 years for jobs and energy savings.
Watch it all come crumbling down now Trump has collapsed Paris agreement and other nonsense.
How the hell has British politics reached the point where the Leader of the Opposition and the leader of one the other parties are openly and willingly sharing an even with these sort of fringe lunatics? Without it immediately disqualifying them in the eyes of the public.
Science shows that the climate has changed constantly through Earth’s geological history.
Science shows that the climate is currently changing at an accelerated rate, and beyond the natural variability.
Science shows that human-driven factors are the dominant cause of this change, and the rapid warming observed over the past century.
Science shows that the consequences of this rapid warming will, and is starting to, include an increased frequency in extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems and human societies.
Science shows that we’ve messed around with Mother Nature, and now have to face the consequences of doing so.
God dammit I misread that headline and was really looking forward to them getting absolutely destroyed at glasto
Tories still begging to lose the next election then.
Please do, I hope they have a hail of piss filled bottles chucked at them.
Climate denial? In 2025? Fucking hell, thought we agreed it was real in the 80s? Just that it would be the futures problem
Can we get Lily Allen and Olivia Rodrigo to make a special appearance together again?
Do you want to get covered in piss? Cos this is how you get covered in piss.
Edit: oh I thought they were going to speak at Glastonbury on behalf of climate deniers
How do the tories choose worse and worse people to lead them? BoJo at least pretended to care about the climate.
Someone is going to get showered in more piss than Daphne and Celeste.
Well… I didn’t get tickets for the real Glastonbury this year. Who’s playing at the climate denier one? I’ll be happy to claim the greenhouse effect isn’t real if Foo Fighters headline.
