Re Jon Johanson ..
Call me old-fashioned, but..
I regard his calculated and scheming 'main chance' acts, both at Ascension and Antarctica, reprehensible.
If it was up to me, I'd not only refuse him awards - but strip him of his licence.
That is not only pre-meditated fraud .. but potentially putting others at risk in order to achieve an ego-driven short-term goal.
It also makes me wonder just what other 'stunts' he's pulled through life in order to get his own way.
