This one? Who doesn't believe asbestos and smoking cause cancer. Anything such a person says is to be taken as comic satire.
Christopher John Penrice Booker (born 7 October 1937) is a British journalist and author. In 1961, he was one of the founders of the satirical magazine Private Eye, and has contributed to it since then. He has been a columnist for The Sunday Telegraph since 1990. He has taken a stance which runs counter to the scientific consensus on a number of issues, including global warming, the link between passive smoking and cancer, and the dangers posed by asbestos. In 2009, he published The Real Global Warming Disaster.
In collaboration with Richard North, Booker has written a variety of publications advancing a eurosceptic, though academically disputed,popular historiography of the European Union.
