Of course Banksy had to get his oar in with his refugee boat piece. Refugees? Escaping the tyranny of France? I suppose illegal economic migrant doesn’t have that special Guardianesque ring to it. I digress. Glastonbury? No, not for me 😆 I'm with him. On 29/06/2024 at 23:45, Gordon R said: Hamas sympathisers and drugs - just about sums Glastonbury up. Virtue signalling f wits.

udderlyoffroad Posted July 1 Report Share Posted July 1 Had refrained from posting on this thread, not wishing to "yuck other peoples' yums" as the kids say. But yes, Glastonbury long ago became to be a parody of itself. Thousands of affluent middle class people, seemingly without any self awareness, braying for open borders, whilst sat behind one of the most impressive & complex security operations in Europe. 4m high fences, watch towers, security personnel, visible and not-so-visible police presence... And then, with all the inevitability of pictures of pretty sixth formers getting their A Level results, today the media is full of pictures of acres of plastic waste and single use camping equipment left behind for others to clean up. And yet these same people probably cheer loudly for Net Zero and Just Stop Oil's antics. I would say it's down to the folly of yoof, but I think that's letting people off a bit too lightly. I reckon if we'd knew the average age of the attendees, we'd be stretching the definition of youth somewhat. Anyway, who's going to the game fair, and what you wearing? 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nailed it Ill add that one of the 'star' attractions was an art exhibition named 'Smash Capitalism' ...The irony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
