"Gavin Williamson, Secretary of State for Education (in England and Wales) had this to say regarding today's climate change protest: "every child" should be in school. "They should be learning, they shouldn't be bunking off and it's very irresponsible for people to encourage children to do so." Well, Gavin, they are learning. School isn't the only place you do that. That said, you are a great example of how learning isn't really necessary to rise to high office. Providing you know the right people, you can be an utterly incompetent twat and still be given charge of a country's defence; then, after being sacked from the Cabinet, be put in charge of education. If you've got the right connections, being a useless cunt is no bar to you." School of Life innit. Street smart isn't just about knowing the time the supermarket discounts food. | |||

" There is no argument about climate change - the UK Government and others worldwide have set a target of becoming a carbon neutral society by 2050. " Of course there is no argument about climate change itself. And as someone who witnessed first hand some of the consequences only last week, there is none from here. However you say "others world wide". Yes there are others but the glaring omission are the others worldwide who haven't, or just pay lip service to it and carry on regardless. I really don't see why the western economies should flagellate themselves on the altar of climate change while others who share the same planet stand still, or in some cases increase their CO'2 output. A little acceleration is fine but (as any driver should know) put your foot down too hard and you will more than likely crash and burn. | |||

"Nope. Norway is to introduce them on domestic flights of less than 60 minutes' duration. Take a look at what Rolls Royce is doing, too. The writing is on the wall for combustion engines. People can get with it or be left behind, basically. " Yes I've read about Norway and its "intention" to be all electric on short haul (however short that may be) flights by 2040 (hardly next week is it?) The only electric aircraft that can actually fly at the moment struggles with two fully grown adults on board. I can't see it being popular on the Benidorm stag and hen circuit any time soon. As I said commercial electric aircraft are decades away. On a wider note, this typifies the whole of the green movement at the moment. Ban everything that works in the hope that something new will replace it. Micawberism at its best. FFS Get real. | |||

"Ah, well, that's another story that is. I'm off to Madrid today. Now, I weigh about 65kg. I bought a ticket with a 23kg case. Usually, that's enough. But if I buy too many cigs and nick-nacks, I might be overweight. £10 a kg Easyjet charges me. But I could be sitting next to someone weighing twice as much as me. But he or she won't be charged £10 extra for each kilo they are overweight! It's a con. " Con or no con. It certainly isn't "another story" it's very much the same one. At the moment the average short haul jet (Airbus 320 Boeing 737 Etc.) can carry around 200 passengers plus luggage and even some freight with a range exceeding 3000 nm. Because of fuel costs (and profit margins) airlines charge for excess baggage, but because of political correctness don't charge for excess passenger weight. Although in America some airlines are making some overweight passengers buy two seats. Even when full with a good few overweight passengers these aircraft operate well within their safety limits. How long will it be before an electric aircraft can do the same? Weight will be so critical that every ounce will have to be counted. I really don't see an electric aircraft that could carry even half of that for a 10th of the distance appearing in the next 30 - 40 years. Kerosene fuelled jet engines are going to be around for a while yet, so get used to it. Unless of course the Green fascists ban holidays. | |||

"Why do people on the right keep repeating their mistakes? Why do they see a 16-year-old girl with autism as a threat? Every time there is a movement for change, people on the right want to brand it as extreme left. And every time history shows they were on the wrong side. LGBT rights in the 1980s, the anti-apartheid movement, workers rights throughout history. And many more. Why do you keep resisting change when the injustice is so glaring? " Why do people on the left always jump to wild usually unfounded assumptions? Oh and as for LGBT rights. Remind me, from what party was the PM who legalised gay marriage? | |||

"Our neighbours in Germany have really been inspired by Greta. So much so they decided to introduce a new regime to the family and informed their daughter as soon as she returned from the mass "Wag off Friday" protest. Firstly (starting on Monday) they will no longer drive her to and pick her up from school in the diesel car. She will have 3 choices, walk, bike, or get the bus which only runs every hour. On Tuesday she has to make a start clearing out her wardrobe and replacing all her pretty girl clothes with Eco friendly woven Hemp, Jute, and, Wool. Also the Nike's will be replaced by Dutch style wooden clogs. These clothes should be a worthwhile investment as they will help to keep her warm when the heating system is turned down to 10 degrees. At the moment she is keeping her fingers warm by furiously typing how shit her parents are into her laptop and mobile phone. However she has been told to buy a good pair of mittens because when device charging is restricted to two hours per week she will not be able to do much typing. She had recently mentioned how much she was looking forward to Christmas. Ah! Christmas they said to her. This year there will be no tree, lights, or candles (all too damaging to the planet) Presents will be restricted to one piece of eco friendly clothing (see above) and Christmas dinner will be limited to a salad. Non Vegan Turkey and all the electricity used to cook the veg is just no longer sustainable. Sadly it's too late for this year, but next years 2 week holiday to the 4 star hotel in Mallorca has been replaced by one week in a tent on the North Sea coast. Four days of which will be the time taken to get there and back using Eco friendly public transport. For some reason their daughter no longer finds Greta quite as inspiring. " | |||

"It is also a good change to see the younger ones engaging in politics and to be on the world stage as you are so used to see the usual politicians Funny how for years the older generations cited that the younger generation was too lazy to be involved in politics, and yet now they're furious this generation is getting involved hard." That is right and now they are getting involved more which is good | |||

" I don't hear anyone calling for the abolition of aircraft, the abolition of cars, the abolition of ships, the abolition of heating. You obviously missed the interview on Sky news the other day. Some vice president of the Green party came very close to all of that. Flying for example would only be allowed for necessary journeys. You can bet your last fiver that a long weekend in Benidorm wouldn't count as necessary. When pressed by Adam Boulton that it all sounded very "authoritarian" he agreed. Sounds like someone who hasn't caught up with the developments in electric engines for aircraft, then. " I applaud your arguments so far but I hope you have done a deeper dive into the carbon footprint of electric engines for flight and the limitations....bit like the current hybrid silliness or wjnd is the messiah....all help but most hinder more so.

"....the new Messiah? or An self-publicising, irritating, little soap-dodger? Discuss! Neither, just a bit of a hypocrite. Why fly half way round the world to talk for a minute when a video link would have been far greener and carried a better statement.

" It's not possible for someone to interact in politics on a world level without incurring a carbon footprint. Trying to paint her as a hypocrite is just another way that the rightwing elite is trying to avoid having to do anything to save the planet. | |||

"To be honest, I'm all for this Eco catastrophe bo**ocks because their policies will make driving and flying so prohibitively expensive than it will mean that rich people like me will have nice clear roads to drive on and no queues in the airports any more. Just like it was 100 years ago when most people couldn't afford it." Rich people like you | |||

"She ain't green m8 ...simple Haters will hate, she is a 16 year old girl trying to make the world aware of climate change, what is wrong with that ??" Do you think that any of those World leaders took any notice of her speech? Yes, they wriggled in their seats a little but until it impacts their Government and businesses, then real action won't happen. Climate change realisation isn't new, its been around for years. Most do their little bit in the best way they can. Deforestation needs to be stopped. That's something that could happen now. Flying needs to be reduced. That will take a generational mindset to change. Long journeys start with small steps. | |||

"IMO she's starting to resemble an episode of Louis Theroix. The American talent show pageant one where over enthusiastic parents take their kids childhoods away by forcing them to travel around the USA in meaningless competitions. After yesterdays rant I'd like to see a behind the scenes on her where we see her writing the scripts, until then she's just a publicity stunt. If it gets more people onto tidying the mess the planets units all well & good, though they really need to stop this "We are killing the planet" old hippie nonsense. We can't kill the planet, just us & a few other species, the planet will continue to go around the sun long after we are gone. S " A few species ??Its going to be far worse. .The World Wildlife Fund's 2018 Living Planet report demonstrates a global wildlife population loss of 60 percent between 1970 and 2014. ...

"Consumersism and how and what we consume is the problem. Mothers being concerned for their children’s future is natural. Their actions should be applauded not mocked .Good people stand up while others sneer like a snide from the sides. " Very true bob was thinking about all the kids ordering stuff on amazon and ebay and how much pollution is caused by parcels moving back and forth every day.But over population of the planet is a big factor too and if they were so concerned they should stop breading.Now you as a good old tree hugger should understand that the planet is over populated. | |||

"I've not heard any argue for flagellation. Except in the darker corners of this website. All I hear are voices calling for acceleration of the transition to a low-carbon economy. I don't hear anyone calling for the abolition of aircraft, the abolition of cars, the abolition of ships, the abolition of heating. All I hear is pressure to speed up a change in their means of propulsion, away from fossil fuels to electric, hydrogen and the like. There is no argument about climate change - the UK Government and others worldwide have set a target of becoming a carbon neutral society by 2050. The climate change movement simply wants to accelerate it. I do not understand why anyone feels threatened by a 16-year-old girl who believes we can accelerate the transition. " Because green energy takes the money away from the fossil fuel producers. Money is power, they can't possibly allow us to harness wind, sunshine etc so we can do without them. | |||

"funny isnt it Greta Thornburg is a missunderstood 15 year old whos been groomed & manipulated on the internet and doesent know what she is doing but seguma begum was a 15 year old who had been groomed and manipulated on line and she knew exactly what she was doing its almost as if someone has an Agenda .......... " The same standards rarely apply on here sadly. Look at the way everyone piled on the Maga hat wearing kid who was 15 and was vilified. Turns out he was just stood still. He was called all the names under the sun by some of the same names crying foul when an activist like Greta gets called out for trying to make a difference. | |||
