welsh1 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Watching the news and the great unwashed with Greta were outside the court after yet again being let off on another technicallity, and what struck me was them all wearing shemagh's, Why? i wore one in the military when on operations for the dust in the desert etc, but why is it so popular in the protester world ?London isn't that well known for its sandstorms. Do they all think they are little terrorists and it makes them look edgy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morgan Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 (edited) Depending on your stance on the reality of climate change. It was a bit bullish by the UK government to lean on the Met to arrest Greta Thunberg......Bearing in mind Ritchie Sunak our glorious unelected prime ministers Indian family firm has just profited to the extent of 1.5 billion from the UK releasing 125 new fossil fuel extraction licences. Google it....all the info is plain to see. Edited February 2 by morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I resent the amount of tax payers money being wasted on the idiot Greta and her mindless, moronic friends. On the other hand, Governments might actually like her. She keeps stoking the greenhouse gas scam fire, which enables milking the populous, via dodgy taxes.

countryman Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 We are only a small island and a pretty clean country compared to most, our biggest pollution problem is immigration and there large families, but let’s just blame the good old motorist, a nice easy tax target.

Sussexboy Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 I wear a shemagh. I have worn one for 40 years. I wear it whilst operating my American machine for converting dinosaurs into noise and a modicum of forward movement. Do you think I should stop in case somebody thinks I am an eco warrior?

This, exactly. I am relived to see at least on here so many of like minded philosophy. Problem is, it will become a lot worse than a mere tax scam, in a fairly short time frame. Once the WHO's new pandemic treaty comes into play in May this year (unless it is scuppered which is looking unlikely), if Guiterrez and his cronies decide we have a climate emergency overnight, they can if they wish make economically and socially crippling restraints with immediate effect (lockdowns, restriction of movement), unchallenged by any individual UN country's government. Tangent and rant over....I also wear shemaghs, they are brilliant bits of kit Edited February 4 by Acerforestry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
