Perhaps more like globalist/corporatist, which reflects their recent ownership?

In 2015, Pearson - a publishing company - sold its controlling stake to a bunch of corporate owners, like the Agnellis (43%) and the Rotschilds (21%), among others.

The change in their editorial direction was immediately visible (I had been a subscriber/reader for 35+ years until 2016)
