Is it time to lock up the Greenpeace terrorists?

[BMWST?]

this stunt was most likely a staged event.

you sir, are a genius.What the hell was it if it wasn't

[Robert Taylor]

the cops should have handcuffed them to the roof and left them there foe a month or so. or they could have had practice shots with the sponge rounds, how many countries would let people trespass on the roof of the parliament bldg, doubt they would in asia or the states

Exactly, take a leaf out of Maggie Thatchers book when that incarcerated Irish terrorist Bobbie Sands went on hunger strike ''Well let him do so''. He subsequently died from his own self induced starvation thereby also saving the British taxpayers a load of money to keep the dropkick.

I'm not sure you can compare 800 years of English oppression with people who want to save the environment.

[puddytat]

Is it coincidence that Robert & GCSBthoughtpolice turn up out of the blue after months of laying low.......

Apparently you can if you're a complete fucking twit like RT. Right wing madness and free-market lunacy, right up until it hurts his own business then it's all about local industry protectionism. So pretty much the standard hypocrisy displayed by pretty much everyone who preaches that end of the political spectrum.

Well labels or not your side of the spectrum is outnumbered in NZ, Great Britain, Australia, Germany and so forth. Protectionism no, level playing field yes

Maybe then the England should stop propping up Northern Ireland and Scotland economically. See how long they would last. The trouble with those who espouse ''saving the environment'' ( and who realistically in their right mind doesn't want to ) is that they want to shut down everything that provides them a living and to give them a chance to espouse their hypocrisy.

No, Ive been busy doing something productive, rather than engaging with the many Marxists who inhabit this forum. Hard work is good, I thoroughly recommend it to anyone who hasn't tried it

Level playing fields and Robert Taylor should never be mentioned in the same sentence!

Taking money from various people to sort their suspension and then placing cheating parts on another's in the same race for the win. What FUCKING ARSEHOLE does that? Oh I know, his name is Robert Taylor. Cunt.

Think hard before you start pointing fingers and to whom. There have likely been many versions of events posted by circling vultures. And the reality is ( no justification ) that over many decades there has been rule breaking in many classes. Of course you are a cheat to your true identity to throw about pretty sad expletives while hiding behind a forum name. Very brave of you. Maybe you should join Greenpeace.

[Voltaire]

Greenpeace have lost their way, now full of useful idiots and political puppets, this stunt was most likely a staged event.
and we now have a minister of 'climate change' Tim Groser, what a joke.

" Useful Idiots"

Its much easier to sit back and bleat on a motorcycle forum.

But then you don't actually have any bikes to keep you occupied

Maybe they should, and Scotland would have a nice income of the oil. Northern Ireland could be returned to its rightful owners and they could all get on.

As for saving the Environment, back in the early 50's London had coal fired power stations and coal heating.
Then they had a very nasty coal induced fog.
thousands dies or were affected. I lived in London in the 80's 90's and the air was fine.
Conclusion, they did something about it.
I was in China on business a few years back and the air was terrible.
They are very busy working for a living but at the cost of the environment

I do get the impression that Greenies don't have a huge grip on economics.

PS: My Classic BMW Racebike Ohlins rear and tweeked front end make for a very plush ride...even round Pukekohe goat track

And therein lies the rub - the principle of Greenpeace is admirable - looking after the environment which in many ways we all rely on for our livelyhood. However there must be balance - forsaking all industry for the sake of the environment is just as ludicrous as forsaking all Environment for Industry.

The problem is that when reasonable and rational people try to have a conversation about how we can achieve balance, ultimately we get drowned out by extremists on both sides.

I don't think Greenpeace are calling on us to turn against all industry.

I think they are simply trying to protect the environment that we rely on for life and in that respect it is high time we made a move towards utilizing (and further developing) clean and renewable energy sources.

[Katman]

And in a similar vein we should be more concerned about maintaining our rivers and lakes in a state that makes them safe to swim and fish in rather than further adding to their degradation by intensifying the dairy farming industry simply because we can make more money by doing so.
