Current Affairs The General Election

Well yeah, get all that. But its a zero risk debate. So not going on it just looks daft.

At the end of the day, the UK contributes 1% of global crap. So politicians spouting about new boilers and insulation and growing vegetables is all pretty pointless in the real world.

The Conservatives have threatened to review Channel 4's broadcasting remit over the ice sculpture.

Bit fashy, that, isn't it?

On course for a 68 majority and getting all uptity over a joke, cry ass babies...

If yer man Jeremy Corbyn did this then I´m sure they wouldn´t be comparing him to Stalin across all the news channels/tabloids tomorrow. Not at all.

Nothing like this is ever pointless. Leading the world in this would be something that´d make me proud tbh. The thing is, if every individual country takes the attitude you´ve just displayed then we will get absolutely nowhere.

I see it as being innovative and being leaders in green energy. Fine tune the techniques then sell to the world. But I'm a Marxist so industrial revolutions don't do anything!

The bastions of free speech those Conservatives.

You read me wrong. What I meant is that on a party political basis, its pointless. They all want to do green stuff, which is great, and yeah, a leading economic power leading the way is mega sound.

So instead of rowing about tiny details surely its better to support every initiative each party suggests?

Looking at this debate tonight you can see there´s a consensus amongst them to do something.You´d hope no matter who is in charge next year there will be cross party support for positive initiatives that make the UK a greener place. As always though, actions speak louder than words.

Fracking, which the tories support is certainly not "green stuff" is it? Don't think its a tiny detail either.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Johnson looks a bit out of touch in not showing up to be honest. Can only do him harm I reckon

Where is Nasty Nige? another coward with no policies.

Dunno mate. Corbyn just said he wants to plant 100 million trees a year, on farms. And make peat bogs. Its an utter nonsense.

Swinson wants to see more hedgehogs, and there is a shortage of sparrows.

Like I said, in the real world, its all pretty meaningless.

Oh, the Plaid fellow is now going to cycle to work and tell his missus to use reusable nappies.

Why is it nonsense?

 

[Aberblue]

I thought it was refreshing to see politicians (in the main) addressing the issues rther than making personal or party political attacks.
