Enviromentalists in the UK

What really annoys me the most these days, is not the general society of racism, socialism or 'do-gooders', but is of these bloody enviromentalists. They have nothing better to do than protest, because they have no day-job, because our 'elected government', the Labour party, decides that people who don't want to work, should still have money coming into the household. Although they get paid a good amount of money for doing Censored all, they still don't get the same sort of money an executive would get. Therefore, if an executive drives a nice car, they don't like it. This has been going on for some while now, but they couldn't start "anti-car" campaigns because poor people drive cars as well.

But then a new style of car came out, aimed at the £20k + market, called luxury 4x4s (note how standard, non-luxury 4x4s have been around for years, and nobody said anything). The enviromentalists thought "Oh brilliant! thats like a perfect filter! lets have a go at these Censored with money!"
It's just another co-inicdence that these 4x4 vehicles are higher than ordinary cars, and therefore look 'bigger'. However, if these enviromentalists went to school, they'd realise that size has nothing to do with mass.
And if they did their research correctly, they would also find out that manufactureres such as BMW, Jaguar etc. are now building vehicles in aluminium, which is a more lightweight meterial per volume than steel is. However, even in steel, the weights of the 4x4 vehicles are more-or-less the same as their 'on-road' equivalent. But hold on, lets just think of this for a moment, what would make a 4x4 heavier than an ordinary on-road vehicle? Most 'fashon' 4x4s have more or less no offroading equipment in them, they use the same engines from the manufacturers' on-road vehicles, the seats, on-board electronics, wheels, suspension, etc. are all from the manufacturers' on road vehicles too, because nobody at porsche would say "Hey, were making the new cayenne, we need to spent £1million to develop a new suspension system, and it needs to be heavier than the ones we use in our carreras, because we want to Censored off enviromentalists."
But obviously, this isn't what enviromentalists really care about. They're more bothered about why they can't own one, and other people can. Well, if they got up off their arse and went to bloody w**k, maybe one day they could afford one.

But the 4x4 issue has now settled down, as these Censored have now moved onto something else; the travel industry.

Yes, thats right, the prats you see on the news, protesting around Heathrow London Airport, quite rightly, calling themselves "Plane Stupid" (at least they're honest)

But theres nothing new in this; just in the same logic of the anti-4x4ness.

I mean, holidays abroad are not always cheap, and not everybody can afford them, you even sometimes see loan adverts on TV advertising loans for reasons such as "To do up your house, buy a new car, or go on holiday", but this anti-plane-ness is another "oh-if-you-have-it-and-I-dont-have-it,-you-shouldnt-have-it" type of thinking.

But this problem has got worse; They've even gone to protest in the factory in north wales where they manufacture the wings for the new luxury airliner, the Airbus A380.

So what do we do about it? Well, in my opinion we should do the following:

1) Get rid of the labour government as our elected party, by voting for conservatives instead

2) Re-introduce the death penilty

3) Give all protesters the death sentence

4) Stop all social security payments coming in from the letterbox

Job done, in my opinion.

Laughing I'm sorry to laugh but it does make me chuckle that I totally agree with you. I've had my rants and ravings about these as I'm sure everyone else does on this forum.

Believe me I took my time out the other day to go down and confront some of these protesters at the airport to see what their argument was. And I took a friend along with me who drives a dodge ram Rolling with laughter Got some pictures somewhere Thumbs Up

They hated it but you know what...I agree with you. Perhaps not sentence them to death for protesters because if you look at it - we're all protesting something. I mean they're moaning about 4x4's because they cant afford it and others moan about them moaning because they can afford it and get annoyed about people who cant and then blame them for being successful.
It really is all a part of life and yes I do hate these do gooders and these annoying protesters who moan about sillly little things.
Perhaps I'm just young and nieve but my opinion - If you can afford a RRS S/C then who cares! Pollute the earth because oil is going to run out soon and why not make the most of it. We cant stop climate change its happening and if we were to stop driving and flying it still wouldnt stop.
One protester quoted about private jets saying that wealthy people are "sticking two fingers up to the people who are trying to make a difference".

Well...if that protester had the money to have a private jet I bet he would have one. Once again if you can afford only the best then get only the best!!
Just remember one thing - if you can afford a 4x4 your not alone in owning one and there will always be a market for them, and these people who blame you for climate change well you know that you've either been educated bloody well or done well in your life in order to afford one and they're purely envious of your success -success that they clearly didnt have.
So I say two fingers up to protesters who are clearly envious - get on with life and forget them! Michael Potter

Apparently the current Green Peace Enviromental spokes person is going to leave Green Peace and move to Aussie land.
This person will of course be FLYING there Exclamation

It was also notable that some of the major protestors were too busy to attend the Heathrow demonstration as they were too busy in Aussie, NZ, Far east, etc etc. But of course they flew there didn't they Exclamation

Censored TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone
