Looked like they'd just stepped out of their suburban Home Counties gardens for the afternoon. About as far removed from the usual suspects, 'student lefties,' as you can get. I was quite impressed. The old bloke running round should have slipped and broke his leg . Would’ve been great watching him loaded into a diesel spewing ambulance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron99 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) 7 hours ago, top4718 said: Your seeing water shortages because the water companies would rather shower their shareholders with wads of cash than invest it into the infrastructure, no new reservoirs have been constructed in 30 years despite a massive increase in population numbers (in that you are correct), it's got nothing to do with climate change. I agree with everything you state except that in bold. The world is warming, there's irrefutable evidence for this. Last Monday gone was apparently the warmest day on record for the world with an average temp just over 17 degrees. Watching the BBC weather last night, that new record was broken again on Tuesday.

JSO disrupting Wimbledon was almost inevitable given several thespians and luvvies have been publicly whinging about Barclays sponsoring the event. Shock horror, a major international banking corporation just happens to include some investments and financing of fossil fuel companies in their billions of pounds of assets 🙄 Strange that not so long ago, some of their fellow thespians were more than happy to take lots of wonga from Barclays to do cheesy TV and Cinema adverts for them.... I wonder if Emma Thompson and Co will be as gobby next time they bump into to Sir Tony or Samuel at some showbiz party. Would that be the same Emma Thompson who took a jet spewing flight from LA to the UK to support some environmental protest a while back? How naive are folk to actually think these hypocrites care. Funny though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horse pipe bans? Thursday, July 6, 2023 Water war: Why drought in Spain is getting political Politico or The epicenter of Spain’s drought: 134 days without rain The barren-looking municipality of Tomelloso has lost all its cereal crops and is now struggling to save its vineyards, which had traditionally kept growers afloat when everything else failed: ‘The situation is really bad’ El Pais or Unprecedented €2.2bn drought response plan approved in Spain The Guardian(May 2023) or Since the start of the hydrological year, on October 1, 2022, Spain received 28 percent less rain than expected by mid-May 2023, according to Spain’s meteorological agency. The drought dried up reservoirs, parched olive groves, and led to water restrictions across the country. NASA or Spain is running out of water. After a long and painful drought, the country has been hit by an unusually early heat wave, evaporating even more of the "blue gold" it still has left in its reservoirs. While farmers fear for their survival, environmentalists say it is time for “Europe’s back garden” to rethink how it uses and manages its increasingly scarce water supply.

It was an absolute tip! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0wv2pldpnqo Plastic bottles, camp chairs and ruined tents everywhere... a whole lot of oil products getting thrown away, but no protest there, although a fair few of the clean up crew look like they'd be right at home at a JSO protest 🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
