    I see that inconsiderate new climate of ours has been causing flooding in London - causing disruption on the roads and railways

    Not that it happens very often. The last time was all of 3 weeks ago

    Why weren't the angry motorists out shaking their fists at the sky or something? Probably afraid of ruining their hair or getting their feet wet.

    There will be more disruption caused by climate change in the future than by a few protesters.

    Actually, I'm more annoyed with this government than the protesters, because they cancelled their Green Homes Deal (or whatever it was called) rather than rolling the unspent money into the next year. We spent a lot of time with SELCE (South East London Community Energy) working out how to best insulate our old house, only to be left high and dry (or out in the cold) after the government dragged its feet over approving contractors, and then pulled the plug,so that a lot of people ended up losing their jobs as well.



    Is there always a direct correlation between heavy rain and climate change?

    No but climate change does cause heavy rain. 

    Posting a link to something that happened in 1287 doesn't do anything to prove any point you think you are making
    I agree, as nonsensical as suggesting that because there was heavy rain yesterday then the motorists inconvenienced by Insulate Britain should redirect there anger towards the skies....

    Climate changes all the time mate, it's called weather!

    Some nutter glueing themselves to the A2 will not change that, but what they will do is piss off the very people they need on board to vote for change.

    There was a clip that I saw where a Police Officer pulled a woman off of the road, and she screamed that he had ripped her hand off of the road as she has glued it onto the road surface. The copper didn’t seem that bothered, so a simple hard pull would free them.
    It certainly does.
    But as others have alluded to, contrary to popular opinion, the police would actually like to remove these people as pain free as possible.
    You may not believe it but working in such a unit you do actually feel for those who devote their lives to certain causes. Especially climate change & animal cruelty.
    But there are lines that can’t be crossed.
    I never had that conflict of interest as my specialist subject was the XRW. Nobody cares how badly you treat them.

    XRW for those who don’t know, as I didn’t, stands for extreme right wing.
    The kind of forces that gave us the murderer of Jo Cox.

    Am I the only one who had to Google XRW?
    Genuinely thought it was about Motorbikes.

    Well I’m very happy that there are many who weren’t aware of what XRW stood for.
    Long may that continue 😁

    Arresting them doesn’t do anything. 
    One man on news last night said it was his 7th arrest during the protests. 

    Put them in prison for a bit. 

    Belmarsh, on bath night!
    Now that is ' tough on  crime, tough on the causes of crime '.

    Ja us the only answer now.
    Jail is the only answer
    And there’s me thinking you knew Latin.

    Please, lets not get another thread closed just because you need some attention, I genuinely find this thread interesting.

    Rubbish.
    Read the chronology of today’s posts on here.
    @KBslittlesis posted about working on XRW, which I and a few other’s didn’t know what it stood for.
    I then posted what it stood for, even getting a couple of likes for doing so, read back if you can be bothered.
    That was left there until a poster invoked the extreme left wing, I didn’t invoke it. So XRW was introduced by @KBslittlesis, and XLW by @4Real.
    None of that was me attention seeking.
    You need to re-examine your stalkerish tendencies before you post disparaging stuff about me ‘attention seeking’, and get your facts right.

    It's attention seeking. Surely there's better things to do than shoehorn a political point in at every opportunity in a forum?

    There is a huge difference between making a relevant comment which has an element of politics, and making a post that is purely politics, with next to no relevant comment. 

    You, are always the latter, and again, for the thousandth time, it is staggering to me, and many, that someone who so habitually can't listen to their own internal bullshit filter is allowed to post on here.
    You constantly get threads closed on here because of this attitude. 

    You wait around for people to say something that you can then take off on a tangent, without any interest in the actual conversation. 

    With that, I'm out guys. Have a good one! I specifically left the house of commoners to get away from stuff like this. With Seth banned from the House of Commoners he is doing everything he can, without any form of consequence to make the main area his own little play pen.
    Like posting about the U23’s, or responding to the Southampton game, or discussing Elewere’s contract?

    Dont mean to come over all pedantic and far be it for me to questiin anyone's spelling, but surely Extreme Right Wing should be ERW?

    XRW or ERW,  it's just a distraction tactic on yet another thread.

    Now, back to these feckless time wasting eco-mentalists...

    Except you seem to have conveniently missed out the bits where you refer to the murdering of MPs.

    Hardly surprising, CL has tumbled back down hill since his ban was lifted. 

    Such a shame there’s no ignore feature.
