Rather than moaning and whingeing about global warming, surely it would be more useful if the demonstrating schoolchildren were to spend their time maximising their educational opportunities so that maybe a bit later on they might be able to contribute to finding constructive solutions rather than just making non-productive noise. But then again the world is chock full of ideologues who have nothing constructive to say and who would prefer to simply stymie everyone else’s quality of life so long as it doesn’t impact on their own. So let’s start by banning all those demonstrating kids from going on foreign holidays and for enjoying anything else that leaves a trail of CO2 in its wake.

Did no one point out to thicko Corbyn that his barmy policies would come slap up against EU state aid rules? Seems he’s damned if we stay in, damned if we come out. But then again that would be the least of this great country’s worries if by some disastrous misfortune he were to end up in power.
