Climate Change Strike by the yoof

Post by Constanza »

Proud of my angel as she walked out of school today.

This was after I drove to her to school on a summers day ( 5 min walk) as her placard was too heavy.

It is unseasonly sunny and warm here in Scotchlandshire. These protesters need to pack it in.

Doesn't that belong on (any of) the Brexit thread(s)?

One. Plant trees. Fair enough, so go and do it. Raise funds to buy land and plant trees, Thunberg Forest (Gump?).

When you drive through Sweden you pass thousands of dead trees all killed by pollution from our power stations when the wind was in the West and still from those in Eastern Europe when it is in the East. If you plant more there they will die as well, needs action from governments first.

Making a joke about making the Gammons mad ain’t really the way to go is it. The guardian was at it yesterday. Talking in terms of left and right etc. Why would you want to alienate half the population before you have even started. This nothing to do with right or left or Brexit vs remain. It’s saving the planet and all the wonderful creatures that live on it ( I exclude humans) or not.
I think the kids did a fantastic job yesterday. We just need the stale pale and male leaders like trump to die off before any other species. You can’t just blame Trump and China etc though. Can somebody tell me how politicians, especially Labour, can virtue signal their green credentials over and over but then want HS2. Or, how can the Greens be called the Greens but then want mass immigration which by definition moves people up the income scale and they then become more vociferous consumers. If you suggested that humans need to have less children I would like to see the face of a liberal. These are tough questions but they need to be answered. It’s easy to say we will put another 5p on a plastic bag. That doesn’t even touch it. Who will be the first elected politician to stand on a platform of a maximum one fight a year for every person in the Uk. We are not even close.

"Why would you want to alienate half the population before you have even started."

I would ask the Tory party for an answer to that, as for less children ask the Pope.

Yes we must go back to the nineteen fifties where we taught children to respect politicians and other blowhards who apppeared on black and white TV.

Watched BBC News review of the papers last night. Some rightish tart, said the kids should have been at school. Guy from the Mirror, politely ripped into her and she seemed to realise what a dumb-arse she looked. Priceless to see her face.
