Piers Corbyn

NAME: Piers Corbyn

SIBLING: Jeremy Corbyn


CAREER: Founder / Owner, WeatherAction


QUOTES: “Whatever may have seemed plausible ten years ago, Global Warming is over and there is no evidence that CO2 ever was, is, or will be a driver of world temperatures or Climate Change.”

“When we have these conversations at Christmas, [Jeremy’s] sons say, ‘Dad, why don't you go along with Uncle Piers?’ I can tell you what he says, but I don't know if it's advisable. Put it this way, he’d rather say nothing and carry on getting support from various greenies.”

SIBLING: Rowan Atkinson

CAREER: Lecturer / Founder, the Campaign for United Kingdom Conservatism (1994) / Political Candidate (Referendum Party - 1997, UKIP - 1999) / Author (Treason At Maastricht / Europe’s Full Circle / And Into The Fire)

QUOTES: “The evidence which links the Hitler regime with today's EU is dynamite.”

“Nelson Mandela’s legacy is a murderous one, comparable, in its racist and economic persecution of a minority, to the Nazis’ treatment of the Jews.”

“I tried for years to get Rowan to take the 'nerd on a park bench eating his lunch' character, which he used in his one-man show, and expand it into a series which would 'go international'… The universal nature of silent comedy and its international appeal was obvious and Rowan had created the basic character already…. I got no royalty."

Lottie Moss

NAME: Lottie Moss

SIBLING: Kate Moss

CAREER: Model

QUOTES: "I hate chavs, I hate everything about them, I hate their loud voices and the words 'init', 'phat', 'fam', etc. Like, seriously, why would you want to be a chav?.. When chavs put status' (sic) I honestly don't understand half of what they've put. The grammar and spelling is shocking."
