    Whether they have mobile phones or not, I have no idea, but I'm willing to place a vet that the vast majority of the protesters used some kind of polluting vehicle to get to the meetings. I doubt if they walked to them.

    One thing that I do wonder though. It seems that there are always professional protesters at these events. Who pays their salary?:dunno:

      Going by the news, nine insulate Britain protesters have all been given a custodial sentence, ranging from 3-6 months, to lenient, my opinion.

      One of the protesters, which I posted a link about has now gone on hunger strike, she is quoted as saying, "what we are doing, is morally right".

        Morally right to put people's lives in danger? Aye, OK then.

          The idea is morally right, the method isn't.

                  Can you imagine sitting for hours on freezing cold/wet tarmac complaining about global warming.

                  Its enough to put you off protesting for the rest of your life.:heehee:
