I walked past them today. Four core groups ... university students, terminally unemployed, middle aged champagne socialists and final-salaried pensioners with blue hair. Hardly representative of tax paying majority. They didn’t want to thank me for supporting them by being PAYE so they can have an Easter holiday on a London Bridge as they were too busy chatting, skateboarding, singing and skulking. A movement for change it ain’t!
Cool story bro ...I walked past a UKIP protest and it was benefit cheating scum perma angry at "the powlitkal eleeeets" keeping them jobless and poor.
Old toothless gammons and fat thick ugly racist "PC gone maaad!!"

I genuinely do not know why the police don't just leave them there. They chose to do it so they can extricate themselves from their self inflicted situation. Just put a screen round them and leave them.
The fun would start when he hears 'Mind the doors!'

Even if you support their cause, it's the case that UK has done more than almost any other nation to reduce carbon emissions, to the extent that it's arguable the nation has been placed at a disadvantage and certain avoidable risks.
No different to our implementation of EU regs as opposed to the likes of the French etcTeamD said:

The number of climate change deniers on this forum has to be the biggest sign that it is full of closed minded, right wing individuals with extreme views. The science is established and clear. Consensus among experts is 90-97%. Almost all papers against climate change come from right-wing think tanks which are dubiously funded. There is nothing to deny or debate.
N.B. I think the protestors are work-shy hippies that will achieve nothing other than disrupt commutes and annoy people.
first paragraph is correct, but "work-shy hippies". You sound like a throwback from the 1960's

Do they glue themselves to trains?
They do Nazi salutes, I know it's only antisemitic when a 'lefty' critizes the Israeli government, but you get my point.Plenty of Tommy's protests has caused disruption and damage...
It's sort of the f
king point of a protest...fk me..."I am going to protest.....but stay at home on my own so as not to cause any disruption.. that'llll show them!!!"
Admit it, you don't like protests if it is protesting about something you disagree with...
It's fine, it's human nature....
Me I hate all protesters both sets who hang about outside HP waving pro or anti Brexit flags need f
king culling...Farage matching and protesting ..f
king all need culling..If Brexit was cancelled do you not think there would be a protest organized?? One I imagine that would be a lot bigger than any seen before...?
Will we see a thread about that protest on PH slagging them off?

I don’t mind any protest. Just stand on the grass over there and don’t impede lawful progress.
You obviously are against protests you don’t like why else would you bring whataboutism in and try and conflate not wanting a road blocked with ultra right wing.
It’s getting boring.
Whatever the protest place nice. If not the police should use any means to get the country moving again.
When one of them glues themselves to a train ( nitice you ignored the question) my answer with be the same. Do whatever to removing him injury is down to them as the author of their own circumstances.
Admit it, you are the one who is bi partisan giving lefties a pas but happy for those you don’t like to save the planet.

It looks like Jeremy when he grows up.
I would take the passports and driving licenses off all the fkers, they want to reduce CO2, let them show the way. 
I’d bet a months wages they’d use human rights laws to get them back. After all they can’t use public transport now either because that’s bad now apparently.I would take the passports and driving licenses off all the f
kers, they want to reduce CO2, let them show the way. I thought that was what we all had to use. It’s getting very confusing keeping up. They are never happy are they, nothing as illiberal as a liberal.

It's also convenient for them to blame the government for not doing enough despite only 43% of our electricity now coming from fossil fuels.
How do we produce the remaining 57%?

Knock yourself out, currently:
Coal 3.45%

Imported from Europe 2%
