  • I'm willing to bet that all those tents are constructed of non-environmentally friendly material, sewn by child labor in China, on machines powered by coal.

  • I have a friend who used to go to these events, but stopped in disgust. She said the vast majority of the guys there couldn’t care less about the planet, but were just out to have sex with as many naïve middle-class girls as possible after filling their heads with fake tales of eco-warrior campaigning around the globe.

    They were effectively all as bad as John Worboys, though not technically as it was all consensual. Not that the Police cared what went on in those camps in any case…

  • FAGGOTS.

  • STOP DEFORESTATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    STOP THE DESTRUCTION!!!!!!!!!!!

    thats all visible sukkaz! co15

  • Nothing to do with class but everything to do with race.

  • The notion that non-whites give a fig about saving whales and polar bears, Tibetan and Nepalese peoples' rights, child labour in India, women's circumcision in North Africa, the rainforest, and 100 other "white people's issues" is so manifestly false that only white people can be stupid enough to believe it.

  • Well, there weren't many non-whites in this piece of film. The only non-white was a man taking photos, probably a journalist. Ostensibly this love-in is about the environment, but one can't help thinking that the feelings of commonality that are on display are as much to do with shared ethnicity as with shared interests. White people celebrating and enjoying stuff that White people like.

  • wrong! there were people there from all over the world. there was a beautiful sense of diversity. we were all there for one reason not one colour you FOOL.

  • Oh calm down will ya. The Climate Camp provided a space for people to come together and organise for when the shit hits the fan. Climate chaos is already occurring and causing floods and storms.

    This is nothing to do with class and everything to do with coming together and work out how we can going to all work together when the oil runs out.

    BTW- the vans and trucks all run on waste veg diesel if that helps you

  • How about this for a argument what kind of fuel did that truck that brought supplies or propts in for you run on. As in your film about taking over a coal mine the only thing you tree huging jackasses can show is that you still depend on us working people. Grow up and start using that book smart brain and try working with people instead of coasting us money with your little tempertantrums.
