Environmental businesses: cuddly, liberal, ethically conscious, dedicated to making the world a better place. Or are they? Strange goings-on at Becoming Green in Cardiff, where call centre staff have been fired while local prisoners have been given day release to gain "work experience" and £3 a day. I'm all for rehabilitating prisoners, but this smacks of nasty, unscrupulous pennypinching masquerading as the performance of a public good.
Still, at least that meant it was a good day for local rag the Western Mail to bury bad news - someone really should proofread the photo captions a bit more carefully in future.
