The Tory minister Jacob Rees-Mogg has come under fire for accusing Unicef of a “political stunt” after the UN agency stepped in to help feed deprived children in the UK during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Commons leader hit out at Unicef, which is responsible for providing humanitarian aid to children worldwide, after it launched its first domestic emergency response in the UK in its more than 70-year history.
As we know, a cornerstone of woke politics favoured by the Grauniad has to be the art of the stunt. It could almost be described as a three-legged stool. Mendacity, virtue-signalling and stunts being the three legs. Kick one away and where are they?

I read somewhere that Unicef are donating £25000 to buy 25000 breakfasts for kids in the UK. That's useful, isn't it?
I'm not sure how many legs the Guardian has, but it's certainly a stool. As your stool sample above shows.
Graeme - I bet Unicef can burn through £25000 in a few meetings.
Sam - that made me think of stool pigeons for some reasons.
