Drew talks to Mike Bonnano, one of the Yes Men, a group of identity correctors, who recently appeared on BBC TV as representatives of Dow chemical, in order to claim full responsibility for the Bhophal disaster 20 years ago. They discuss the intersection of art and activism, and the inspirations for the Yes Men's brand of protest.
