Yes. Really.

I had not paid much attention to these ER people, dismissing them as just another flavour of the usual green loons but thanks to this thread, I dug around a bit.

Actually a lot of the political reaction makes a lot more sense. The ER demands boil down to essentially putting a lot more power into the hands of politicians and effectively demanding what would be considered wartime Governances by way of a 'National Emergency'. No wonder the parasites up at Westminster are falling over themselves to get in line. This movement must be the only one that seems intent on giving them more real power at the moment, even if they masquerade behind this ludicrous notion of 'citizen assemblies'.

This is essentially part of a wider, middle class power grab, wrapped in some bulls*** 'save the planet' nonsense, posing the political version of 'when did you stop beating your wife' question.

A direct attack on democracy, once again. And invariably from the same people behind the campaign to thrawrt the real will of the people with regards to Brexit.

Isn’t brexit intent on giving more power to Westminster? The bold above is a strange statement for a Brexiteer.

The stuff about this being a middle class power grab is truly bizarre - I can’t make any sense of what you mean.

An interesting post. I've always believed that mankind will wipe itself out one day, and via a nuclear conflict seems to be the most likely method, but I'm sure it (mankind) could find alternatives if it set its mind to it. Man won't "destroy the planet" though - the planet will survive, and with man out of the way, hopefully it will recover.

The green movement says that it wants to "save the world", whereas in fact it is trying to "save mankind" (and lots of other species besides). I do wonder if it's a futile ambition.

Well have to agree with you, not bothered myself as long as we are not relegated.

Then it would be extremely annoying.

If mankind got wiped out tomorrow, we’d be in the prem for all eternity.

I think it’s worth the trade off.
