You lost you demented little cretin, get over it and concentrate on your job you terrorist sympathiser.

Really, care to prove that statement? China using more coal and oil than at anytime in history, ditto India, Russia, the US and Indonesia using the drill baby drill memo too. Only idiots like the EU and UK are doubling down on renewables which will never offer either the reliability or low cost that fossil fuels currently provide. Our manufacturing base has been hollowed out by incompetent governments for the last 20 years and the only beneficiaries are the major polluters named above and if you’re too thick to see that then there’s little hope for you. Used sensibly renewables are clearly beneficial but when you have complete numpties like Millibrain intent on pursuing his stupid and damaging policies whatever the cost it’s no wonder this country is heading for bankruptcy. It seems though that even the EU are finally recognising the lunacy of the policy and are rowing back so how long before the UK is forced to do the same?

What "statement" did I make that has made you wet yourself?

You need to “do more research” because China is leading the way.

Sorry I forgot you can’t read. Maybe it was your last paragraph about the world moving on from fossil fuels and jobs moving to renewables, both totally wrong as I’ve just explained.

You actually believe that bollocks, ha ha ha. Well they do say there’s one born every minute.

“Idiots” like the UK and EU are planning for a future where we can enjoy the benefits of energy sources that don’t pollute, are endless and secure humankind for as long as we don’t want to blow ourselves to smithereens.

Fortunately, people in Wetherspoons aren’t the ones deciding.

Yet.

So it’s not true then?

You have figures that prove otherwise that I’m excited to see

That wasn't a "statement" you silly old sausage - it was a question. Hence the "?" at the end.

Old duffers like @Whitesince63 think the world should still be run on coal and horses and slavery. Thank fuck they're dying out.

He’s busy googling Chinese coal mines.

They do still open them, for what it’s worth, but their whole philosophy would make Miliband look like Brunel.

The Chinese just get on with it and don’t have to put up with folk gurning about the good old days of smog and lungs like charcoal.

As I say, fortunately this type of thinking is dying out naturally so it’s mainly just the final bark of an elderly dog that has to drag its legs behind itself on a trolley.

The Yangtze hydroelectric dam is the most dramatic project in China Get Shit Done philosophy. Millions displaced and slowing rotation of the earth. Biblical

I know they do.

I also know the direction of travel.

We need to match their pace, but won’t.

Because they are doing it right, they need energy and know they need to move from one source to another. Why is simple stuff made so difficult by so many?

It's a hardly a fucking conspiracy theory is it mate.

You've just made an absolute tit of yourself tonight. Though it is Friday to be fair.

China (for all their faults) know the direction we are heading.

Excellent to see the UK and EU still doubling down. We need to up our pace.

Proud to live in a country that takes this issue seriously. I hope it's a policy that does Reform damage.

Progress will happen regardless. Always has.

Inside toilets were frowned on back in the day

”you expect me to have a shit INSIDE my house? Are you mental?”

Those people are gone now.

A bit of Tony Wilson at the end. She came across well. 

Is the Green vote a by election ‘protest’ vote or something that would carry into a GE. Hopefully the Labour and Conservatives leadership can see that people are just desperate for something positive to latch onto, so rather than spending most of their time infighting and slagging others off they can start to present something positive. Labour need to sort the economy , NHS and continue to cut the levels of unnecessary immigration as delivery will be more important than word and slogans which Westminster as a whole seems to have forgotten.

Really need to stop looking through the replies 

 

 

Anyone have an idea on the number of seats a “Islamist backed” party would take at a General Election?
