He is not a politician. Unlike yourself I knew exactly who he is, his background and what he does to earn a crust-having heard him first in 2019. Unlike yourself I know what an Oxford Union debate entails- yes I have been to one in 1979(devolution). Unlike yourself I did understand his view that the correct response to 'woke' issues should be constructive and not destructive and be relevant to the 90% who don't give a stuff because things like food, survival, shelter. health and money consume their thoughts and energy. He is not wrong. His popularity amongst the far-right is based on their mistaken beliefs that he is attacking the 'wokes' and their beliefs when in fact it is their methods and responses that he is having a go at.

Chekhov Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) The last mine (an open cast one) producing Welsh steam coal has been refused permission to extend its life was refused by Merthyr Tydfil council. They came out with all the alarmist nonsense about the "climate and nature emergency" but in actual fact all this will mean is the coal will have to be imported from Columbia and therefore emitting far more CO2. It will also put up the price, therefore making a trip on a steam train even more expensive and putting many Heritage Railways in even more financial trouble. Surely this decision is just virtue signalling at its worst ? Just out of interest, what do these climate activists expect to happen with steam railways ? Get rid of them I suppose ? After all, their contribution to CO2 emissions must be significant, surely....... Particularly compared to China & India, who have no intention of severely reducing their emissions, so I think the phrase "drop in the ocean" is about right. Much damage for no significant gain.

Probably because I've never complained, flagged a post, or even used the ignore function. I actually actually enjoy seeing lefties driven to rank frustration. For me it's part of the fun!
