" all you need to know about Extinction Rebellion – it is, above all else, a movement of students and left-wing academics. "
"How utterly predictable that Extinction Rebellion should have re-emerged this week to block streets with its boats. You just have to ask yourself what happened last week: most universities broke up for the summer. The group’s activities have now settled into something of a pattern. When universities are on vacation we get these big protests, sucking in protesters from all over the country. During term-time, on the other hand, we get small protests in university towns as we had in Cambridge, Oxford and Edinburgh in May and June."

According to chummie on Radio 4 this morning they are Marxist/Anarchists whose longer term aim is to destroy state, capitalism, and the economy. Climate change is not their interest but a tool to motivate the dumb masses to do the dirty work. Useful idiots once more.https://order-order.com/2019/07/17/extinction-rebe...

Did anyone think anything different? It is obvious what their agenda is.

Hopefully they all f
k off before the Harbour Festival this weekend.
I've just been reliably informed they are going to target the swingbridges on FridayHopefully they all f
k off before the Harbour Festival this weekend.That is going to be utter chaos - and extremely dangerous when the boats can't access the lock

I've heard that too. As you say, the tide doesn't hang round on the river and with all the boats due in for the harbour festival, that could get very nasty very quickly.That is going to be utter chaos - and extremely dangerous when the boats can't access the lock

Dr Patrick Moore cofounder of Greenpeace said:
There were always extreme, irrational and mystical elements within our movement, but they tended to be kept in their place during the early years. Then in the mid-Eighties the ultraleftists and extremists took over. After Greenham Common closed and the Berlin Wall came down these extremists were searching for a new cause and found it in environmentalism.
The once politically centrist, science-based vision of environmentalism has been largely replaced with extremist rhetoric. Science and logic have been abandoned and the movement is often used to promote other causes such as class struggle and anti-corporatism.

We didn't mean for our protest to affect your life in this wayUh, yes you did? The whole point is to disrupt people. Some of those people will have bad things happen to them on the day you decide to disrupt them. Does she need a diagram?

Just heard that on the news. Sounds like chaos with the fire at Cribs too. Guess it's just Cumberland Basin tomorrow then.
Abbeywood today, M32 at Hambrook tomorrow is most likely. My neighbour works at Dick Lovett, between XR and the fire over there I don’t know how he’ll get to work
