I have read that some billionaires have raised 600 million dollars in 24 hours to help rebuild Notre Dame, I find that so disgusting that a wealthy institution like the church can benefit from that much money, when I think how many starving children this could feed and how much it could help towards cleaning up the plastic etc from this planet, I have no doubt that some of them got rich on the backs of the oil industry from which plastic is made, they probably think it is going to buy them a better place in heaven when they die. sad how they can give away part of their fortunes to already rich institutions but not to the people that need it, but then I suppose we must keep the clergy in the lifestyle it's used to.

Just been reading an article in the Daily Express online (  https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1110369/brexit-news-how-much-has-brexit-cost-so-far-total-brexit-delay ) about the cost of Brexit so far, £116,060,578,792. What an absolutely staggering amount. That’s more than £100 billon, this could have funded 1,290 hospitals, provided 14 billion meals for children, or hired two million police officers. On top of which the Bank of England estimate it is costing us £800 million a week which if you multiply that by the 12 week extension till June 30th she is asking for, that works out at another  £96 Billion, as I said before that should come out of their wages, they might not be so keen to keep delaying Brexit then.

I see a police driver who knocked a boy off of a scooter he had just stolen could face charges of misconduct, the question is WHY? people seem to forget these little toe rags should not be committing the offence in the 1st place, but as usual it is easier to blame everybody else except the toe rags and their parents. Now Wales has decided to stop parents from punishing their children, does it not occur to anybody that it's because of lack of discipline that these kids are like it, so because once again the do-gooders get their own way and get these ludicrous laws introduced every body else has to suffer the consequences, with police having to waste their time cleaning up the mess that the parents should have been stopping in the 1st place, but because of these stupid laws the police, teachers and most of all parents are now afraid to discipline their kids because of fear of being prosecuted. Nobody wants to see children beaten or abused but a good sharp smack to the backside never ...

While I agree to a certain extent on what the eco activists are trying to achieve by protesting, what I can't understand is why they feel they have to bring chaos to this country, I always thought that we are at the fore front when it comes to tackling climate change and pollution, so why do they not protest in the country's that are the worst polluters, surely this is where they need to try and bring about change, is it perhaps something to do with the fact that in some of these countries they face spending years in rat infested prisons or even being shot for voicing their opinions, yes we desperately need to do something to bring about change if we want to leave this planet to our grand children etc, but for goodness sake vent your feelings at the worst offenders, on another note how many of you protesters bother to pick up plastic etc from our beaches when you go to the seaside or how many of you will bother to clear away your take-a-way wrappers and plastic when you have fi...
