«Climate group Extinction Rebellion has targeted sites in central London, such as Oxford Circus and Parliament Square, in a campaign of non-violent civil disobedience with the aim of stopping what it calls a global climate crisis.»

«Police said 1,065 people had been arrested in connection with the protests, and they had charged 53 with offences including obstructing the highway»

«Swedish teenage environmental activist Greta Thunberg addressed crowds at Marble Arch on Sunday, urging them to never give up their campaign to save the planet.»

Gli attivisti del Climate group Extinction Rebellion godono di alcune invidiabili caratteristiche.

Poniamoci alcune domande.

– Mantenere circa ventimila giovani studenti per due settimane a Londra (1,400 euro x 20,00 = 28 milioni euro.

– Ventimila biglietti aerei andata – ritorno verso e da Londra sarà costato circa 14 milioni di euro.

Domandiamoci quindi: chi ha finanziato codesta operazione? In fondo, 28 + 14 = 42 milioni di euro.

Essendo retrogradi oscurantisti, si era rimasti ai tempi in cui i ragazzini, gli studenti,  andavano a scuola. Come la si mette allora con questi dimostranti? Perderanno l’anno scolastico?

E che dire di Miss Greta Thunberg: per quella la scuola non esiste?

E se alla fine, per beffa del destino, avesse ragione il Deutsche Welle, tempio mondiale dei liberal socialisti, quando afferma:

Germany’s climate activism is full of hypocrisy
