Youri McAnespie Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 I know he's accused of thin-skinnededness at times but I don't think he'd get drunk just because someone criticised his beloved tory twats. 🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 6, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted November 6, 2019 I suppose part of the problem is that when governments and politicians don't seem to respond in kind, then folk tend to take these claims lightly. Why the folk were opening a coal mine in Cumbria is a headscratcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 We're fucked because aside from fripperies like driving down the supermarket with our empties - burning fuel so they can be ground up and used as sand in motorway repairs, we won't do fuck all meaningful, hardcore yoghurt weavers aside... Imagine being told you were limited to two flights every decade or tinned beer was banned or bridges and infrastructure were going to be given benign neglect, or that charger cables were to be made in Nottingham and would cost £18.99 + VAT... Meanwhile 2 billion Chinese are saving for their first Bentley, smoking cocaine and tiger penis cigars in their coal fired open plan Mansions...

Hysteria and over hype will not work. The boy who cried wolf. Except the climate crisis isn't being sensationalised bud. Those stark as fuck warnings have come from decades of research based on factual data and are now supported by 99% of the scientific community. This isn't hype or hysteria. Using those words imply that the issue is being exaggerated or even suggest an irrational fear. And you're wrong, the stark warnings on climate change are not turning people off.

This ain't the boy who cried fucking wolf. In that story the wolf doesn't exist until the end whereas the climate crisis is pretty visible right now.

I'm beginning to worry you're in the tin foil hat brigade😁 Alfoil R Us I am sure and certain if this lot you are allied with piss/turn me off so much, there will be millions more turned off also. I don't believe I am wrong about the 'stark warnings' either. Everything is exaggerated to fuck these days and thereby loses its impact as people get weary of all of the impending diasters which never materialise (remember how we were going to hell in a handcart as soon as the country voted for Brexit?). You and the Kent miss the critical comment as always. We are all pretty much on the same side here. The disagreement is about what actions are taken. The hysterical language is a turn off. The nuisance factor of blocking ordinary people going about their everyday business is intolerable. No surrender.

Ed Milliband would be pissing it for labour against Boris as would someone of Cameron's ilk Vs Corbyn. For all the vocal loons at both extremes of the parties the vast majority of the UK sits in the middle. The Tories and Labour both keep making barmy decisions and putting utter twats in high positions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
