Bunch of idiots
 
https://news.sky.com/story/extinctio...tinue-11830634

My personnel view on this is, whaty a bunch of idiots. No matter what aggro they cause. They wont change anything. All the activists are doing is taking hard working police officers off the streets of London. To prevent crime.

And yet they are nicking these people, who wont change anything for what they are protesing about. The Government are not interested in what they are doing.
To me if anyone who is arrested is on benefit. I would stop it to teach them a lesson. They are committing a crime, therefore sdtop there benefit.

In the world there are people who are trying to stop things from happening. It wont change a thing

These are the sort of people who will bang on about climate change but be driving a big 4x4 polluting car.

Organised anarchy, a garbage can model. If they achieve anything, it will be an accident.

These people drive a diesel 4x4 towing a trailer and then chain themselves underneath it to moan about using fossil fuels,listening to tv broadcasts it's clear they don't want to personally give up anything it's all up others to do it.

There are plenty of people who don't have a diesel 4x4 towing a trailer and there are many who don't have a car or any vehicle at all.

So l gather because they believe in climate change they must be idiots as well?.

Agreed.
It's gone way past believing it or not, the data is now irrefutable to all but those who don't want to hear it.

Even if they don't drive wastefull 4x4's I wonder how many of them would give up hot baths, showers and a warm house in winter? Or stop buying the latest mobiles that cause such environmental damage in China to make them? Or fashion clothes that are only worn once and then dumped in landfil?

They only look to others to make a sacrifice, never themselves. Utter hypocrits.

Still they ignore the elephant in the room: There are too many people on the planet by about 10 fold.

Just a shower in our household and in the winter we only turn on the heating as and when it is required.

l might well not stop it in the end Mr K but it would delay it thus giving politicians more time to knock their heads together and find some common sense and reality in there for once.

They want the Government to go carbon neutral earlier, not ban hot water.
