Impossible to fathom how they feel causing so much disruption for so many would improve their call for better home insulation.

If they were protesting against single use plastics and arranged litter picks around the countryside and on beaches around the local area where you live they would have much much more support, most people hate littering.

[Mamyalynne]

There aims are here.

They have to find a better way to further the cause however, this won't do it.

Another moron making life a misery for people who care for the planet and their loved ones.....

[webbo3]

They don't care, bored middleclass housewives, when extinction rebellion turned up in Bristol and Cardiff towing a boat the vehicles they used were diesel land rovers with no M.O.T.

Insulate Britain? What does that mean?

[davebro]

So they stopped folk going to work, keeping (maybe hospital) appointments, making deliveries, etc. etc.

I'm afraid if I'd been near the front of that tailback I would have chivvied up a few others & kicked the carp out of the bar stewards.

[Mamyalynne]

You appear to know them, I don't - I certainly care about the poor state of some of Britain's housing and of course something needs to be done.

I don't support this form of protest that simply builds resentment rather than bringing people on board.

[Atheist]

Naomi. It means fund the provision of thermal insulation to dwelling places. Not rocket science. What didn't you understand?

[naomi24]

I didn’t understand what it meant. What didn’t you understand, atheist?

[naomi24]

By the way, I’ve left an answer for you on the Villette thread in Arts & Literature.

[Atheist]

Naomi, I thought I did understand it. If you think I misunderstood it, then please explain.

[davebro]

I think what they want & what they should get are some martyrs. They could throw themselves in front of a few HGVs or the police could start cracking a few heads a la Orgreave.

[Mamyalynne]

Explained in the link I gave.

[naomi24]

Yes, thank you mamyalynne. I’ve since read your link.

[Atheist]

Naomi, I did notice it; or you may have left another. I'll go and look. Thank you.

I don't like that people namecheck their friends after going on Popmaster.

I think I will block a junction in protest

[dave50]

I don't understand why the police just stood around and didn't just drag them off the road.

[Atheist]

Hopkirk; what is Popmaster?

[jno]

excellent, they seem to be getting their message across to ABers who've never heard of it. Job done!
