    "Thousands of schoolchildren in the UK are taking part in climate strikes"

    Has anyone considered administering a good smack round the earhole?

    If these little darlings want to protest about 'climate' (?), I wonder why they didn't choose a Saturday?

    Part of the UK Student Climate Network, 15-year-old Scarlet, from Suffolk, says the group has a detailed list of demands.
    "We want the UK government to declare a climate emergency and make moves to achieve climate justice, prioritising this above all else," she told BBC News.
    "We're demanding the government listen to us and we will continue to make a noise until they do so.
    "It can't be about behaviour change any more; it has to be about system change."
    Scarlet says she has been vegetarian since she was six, wears second-hand clothes and avoids plastic bags; she also carries reusable straws.


    ....

    Poor lass...pretty much undateable...

    Why does she need straws, I wonder?

    'Avoids plastic bags'? What, like she runs away from them or what?

    Oddly enough I am working from home today and listening to your BBC6 and heard this article on the hourly news.

    First child interviewed?

    Dublin.

    Not any part of your so called United Kingdom.

    Would you mind awfully either paying for a TV licence or ceasing to view or listen to the BBC? There's a good chap.

    I mean you wouldn't want us all thinking you're just another freeloading mick parasite, would you?

    There was a (scare) story a while back that we might lose BBC post Brexit which was quite funny.

    Because you are so far down the route of detailed planning and preparation that television access is ticked off the list.

    Don't have a radio license any more, B.

    I'm in Paris and can listen to all radio iPlayer.

    I think it good that Frogs and Paddies can listen to proper English accents (and with R4 the best radio in the world) for free. We just subsidise it by getting the Eastenders watching plebs to pay up.

    Why the problem?

    I haven’t heard an English accent on radio 4 for years. They’re all Jamaican or paddy these days.
