Yes - it would have been far more powerful. And then she could have gone back to school as she highlighted she wanted to.

It just made me think of what the Gillet Jaunes were saying about people like that looking at the end of the world and them just looking at the end of the month. It's a different perspective when you don't have much and most initiatives will aim to take away even more.

She’s just a stupid teenager, and that applies to every teenager. You think you know everything at that age but you just come across as a clueless emotional tantrum throwing idiot to adults so she’s certainly following the normal cycle there.

"clueless emotional tantrum throwing idiots" both barrels to the ol' foot there.

That is utter shite. Age does not = wisdom. It does not take a genius to see that unfettered capitalism is buggering up the ecosystem, how it gets fixed who knows but it is not going to be by Nescafe N'espresso banging on about how some pods were made into a bloody bicycle.

Companies have to be persuaded (massively taxed) to stop anything that is unsustainable. If that means we cannot all have a new phone every 2 years or a new TV every few years then we will probably just have to suck it up!

The fact so much of the goods in a supermarket have the "not currently recycled" mark is ridiculous, doubly so when you consider there are no financial penalties to the manufacturer (afaik?) but that our councils have to pay the landfill charge. It is a shame that hitting people's pockets seems to be the only way to gain people's attention though and even more of a shame that a 16 year old lass is on the end of a coordinated attack by climate change deniers is sickening to be honest.

TL:DR

Some young folks are weel informed, some rick old people are fucking stupid (or lying to further their own bank balances)

i think it would - it would get rid of the hypocrisy undermining her speech,
we’ve all watched it on a computer/phone screen after all.

Got a great idea for a movie about all this ..'The SEXploitation of Greta ThunberG...(You've stolen my dreamsXXX)'

I think it's probably best suited to a Russian production house and they'd have to find a really er...particular looking 18 year old whore (probably be really cheap mind thinking about it), but I'm sure it's got potential in the marketplace.

Not for me of course. I'm no Prince Andrew.

Yes Dave, a well advised tweet proves beyond doubt that there's absolutely untoward going on here.

tbh though I'm already filled with joy for the new working week after seeing Harry & Meghan doing such wonderful things in Africa this morning.

On his advice, I'm going to work on my greed, apathy and selfishness.
