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?

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

First child interviewed?

Not any part of your so called United Kingdom.

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

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? :thumbup:

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.

I’m really not sure why we’ve been letting you have it all this time, tbh. The idea that we imprison people over here for not paying for it, but let you lot have it gratis does irk somewhat.

Absolutely not, a! It stopped working thanks to The Man.
Besides, that was me waging war against the capitalist running dogs of the entertainment industry rather than stealing bread from the mouths of single mothers, pensioners and simple kiddies like what sw is by not paying the licence fee.

Nobody has asked me to pay the TV Licence fee* so I am not stealing anything from anybody.

It is a curious loophole one admits. I cannot access your iPlayer but I can watch and indeed record all said programmes.

*I may not have ever paid it between 1987-1994 and then again 1998-2002 but what can you do.

I have a licence * and can't access the iplayer **:furious: Don't need one for the radio anyhow



*I am registered*** at an address with a licence.

Yes. This is almost certainly because sw and his feckless, bog-bothering compatriots have stolen your BBC, la. :nod:

Excellent programming.
"What do we want?"
"More taxes"
"When do we want them?"
"Now!"
The current regime is doing everything in it's power to destroy the family unit. Normally we don't see this sort of propaganda until they've reached the Uni system. What we're seeing here is the equivalent of some Liberian warlord arming children to kill for his cause.

No, blame the parents, imo. Fairplay to the kids for taking the opportunity to skive school; perhaps all is not lost after all.

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.

Nothing to do with the current regime, imo. It's been happening for a century, give our take. Blame The Wars.

If you did a straw poll even of this very message board, I doubt you'd find too many of our little quorum who had as many children as siblings, if any children at all.
