    While I agree with sensible people supporting the cause, I think it's a bit irresponsible and foolish to disrupt everyday activities like that. You don't know what harm you could be causing someone not at all involved in the movement who just simply needs to go from point A to point B. There are many ways to bring about change and to force governments to listen. Well planned and executed protests is one of them. Using social media. Writing articles.... voting.... pressuring government officials. Climbing on top of commuter trains is just dangerous and accomplishes nothing.

    Education is a big one... I fully agree. In fact, if as much effort were devoted to child education and awareness of the environment as the effort being put forth in the multi-gender nonsense.... we'd all be a lot better off.

    I heard of one chap who couldn't get to hospital for his chemo. He had to walk the final 20 minutes or so feeling pretty rotten. There are ways to do things and that chap did not deserve to put up with that.

    The funny thing is that the UK experiences some of the most banal weather conditions in the world too. They are getting hysterical when most are getting on with their lives.

    When Greta reaches my age she will feel like a plum.
