I like your thinking, water cannons would give the stinky bds a much deserved wash.

I walked past an XR demonstration on the Strand yesterday and they do indeed genuinely smell very unpleasant.

Not only do they look unwashed they clearly are and was thinking at the time we could do with Boris's water cannons. Which then reminded me how ste Teressa May was as Home Secretary, and PM come to think of it.

No sign of the Guardian being blockaded that I'm aware of...
No, but they did manage to block people reading an interview with David Attenborough about saving the planet. Idiots.
They also blocked the Daily Mail. The same paper that is currently running a "Clean Up Britain" campaign, and has previously campaigned against single use plastics and microbeads.

fking idiots.

It's almost as if the planet saving shenanigans were merely a pretext, a smoke screen if you will, to attempt to hide the usual authoritarian marxism.

Most are middle class Hippies living off a trust fun.
Probably never done a hard days graft in their lives, are massive hypocrites and probably did a gap year and took a 12 hour jet flight to some far flung place to virtue signal about saving an endangered LGBTQ disabled hamster while eating tofu.

The type of people you'd want to punch if they were at your BBQ lecturing you about how meat is murder.

In which case it'll get busy with XR, marxist lifestyle control freakery is hardly a worthy cause.

XR protesters chained themselves to the railings at Parliament earlier today to highlight - something.

But not before they took their shirts off.

Before I clicked I thought 'Oh gawd, yet another bunch of dicks!'

Doesn't seem appropriate now. hehe


So I'll just stick to 'the clueless.' smile
