Maybe he thinks that the problem is that the bigger (not actual) crimes are not actually crimes ? Perhaps he (and maybe JSO) think they should be.

As an MP, perhaps he could do his job and legislate for that.

You’re assuming we have entirely the same definition.

Also I assumed in good faith this had no link to the JSO movement’s actions like you said
It has no link to JSO. I'm simply wondering what action you'd suggest to highlight the need to take immediate action to slow climate change.
Sure….. you’ve not even defined what you’re asking about and you immediately pivoted to a default position based around a preset held view.

You’re clearly not bothered about a discussion in good faith so I won’t bother engaging again until you are.

If all you want to do is defend this bloke’s cult I suggest you head on over to Twitter.
Well, I can't say I'm surprised you have no ideas. You have the chance to define what your definition of climate change is and what needs to be done to try and slow it down. Feel free to come back if you can think of anything to add.

I don't think he can do it on his own.

How often are JSO protesting in the countries that produce the majority of the carbon emissions?

I've not said that JSO's actions are the correct ones but they do keep the topic alive. Mostly, Governments don't want to give it more than lip service as it will cost money to take effective action. Given that short-termism is the bane of all elected Governments none of them want to adopt an expensive, probably unpopular approach during their short period in power. Big business, especially Big Oil, will do almost anything to prolong the gravy train and unless these attitudes can be changed we, and more likely our children and their children, are totally fekt.

How we make Governments change their attitude, and move from weasel words to concrete actions is problematic but we sure as hell need people to continually raise the visibility of the issue by protest and any other means.

Maybe you ought to try a new fangled search tool called "Google" - it's on the internet apparently - it may even help you.

Obviously…..

I checked my diary and there wasn’t space to debate apocalyptic cult members defending convicted criminals.

Might be able to fit you all in when the purple hair girl hopefully gets sentenced next week though 👌🏻

I really hope you’re right and I, and most of the Scientists in the World are wrong. I really do. However, that does seem rather unlikely. Neither of us will be around when and if the sh*t hits the fan so you’re probably safe in continuing your baseless criticism of anyone who takes affirmative action to try and change the outcome. You’re not going to get found out.

What do we want? We want you to Google climate change! When do we want it? Now!

In reality, there's no quick fix. Those who are able are working on it. These students are just getting in the way.

No probs mate. I can’t imagine waiting on a response from you - take your time. It must be busy at the car park.

Unfortunately for George, purple hair dye wasn't an option in his quest to impress and woo the object of his desires - Lucia.

But, not one to be easily defeated, he instead opted for a fetching keffiyeh whilst espousing some guff about her foraging on the forest floor for mushrooms like a deranged acid fiend. Time will tell (possibly up to four years) until he'll find out if it's worked, and she finally shags him.

In case you're wondering, Lucia is the one on the left of this photo. And, to be fair to George, she's probably the pick of the bunch.

Interesting how those voices that insisted Shamima Begum was just a poor innocent victim of grooming are not suggesting the same for Phoebe and Anna.

Judging someone on their appearance really isn’t a clever take, especially coming from a ginger.

A bit mean of their "pals" to cheer as they're hauled off to jail.

Absolutely ridiculous sentences yet again. They endangered nobody and damaged nothing. They just made a bit of a mess.
