Peaceful protest is allowed, I protested several times during covid no problem at all. 
Fossil fuel “ Barons” who are they ?? You do know the tax rates applied to the UKCS  don’t you ?? 
I agree in regards insulation but believe you should if you can afford it pay for it yourself. I do recall the cavity wall phase causing a lot of hassle long term to the old colliery houses back in the day. 
School meals ?? Why should they be free ?? ( there is actually no such thing as free in this case, someone has to pick up the cost somewhere) I’m happy to pay for my kids to eat !! Why shouldn’t I if I can afford it. If people can’t then yes free school meals have a place. 
my views on nationalisation of essential industries have been put on here numerous times. 
Stature and global reputation I think you delude yourself on that one and the honesty and integrity you seem to think will appear overnight with a change of government. As for bankruptcy yep the last few years insanity definitely will be a financial burden for many years to come but hey who didn’t like a bit of free money eh 42 

 

Free money? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ Not for me mate, no furlough, no grants, no bounce back loans even, nothing. I'm just paying for other people's free money now. A few at the top, supposedly in charge at the time, took a hell of a lot of free money in a few short months.🤷‍♂️

Is it ?? Is that somewhere where I’m happy to support myself if possible rather than rely on the state ?? My world is largely based upon common sense and pragmatism. 
I find it quite laughable that those of us who remember the previous Labour administration now see people whom seem to think getting rid of tories and replacing them with Starmers crew  is gonna be an answer to every single issue.

Sorry I forgot you called it 100% on every occasion over the last few years, I remember well your wise words of protest at the folly we witnessed. 🤔

Local conservationists say there was a confrontation with a man who was defying a protection order.

The height of those felling cuts is criminal if nothing else.

It's reminiscent of a Beaver's work to me.

No satisfaction at all  in being right about any of that Mark I can assure you. He most likely wasn’t thought we had some proper good bbq, music and drinks sessions with a rake of people present during lockdown. Funnily enough we all survived. I see he’s gotten a tidy little number to see him by eh Mark 🤔seems to be the way of things.
