I would have some respect for Extinction Rebellion if they made their protests in the capitals of China, USA and India.

We should heed Leeds protesters over climate changeI’m sure the Governments of these countries would be delighted to show their tolerance, understanding and appreciation of their activities.

Time to arrest Extinction Rebellion's left-wing agitatorsThe general public would more appreciate their efforts if their next demonstrations be phased over the period between November and the end of February when they may enjoy the opposite side of climate change.

Greg Wright: We may be forced to embrace Extinction Rebellion's beliefsObviously they would need time off during the Christmas period to do their Christmas shopping unhindered by any interruption to their festivities.
