I read one commentator pointed out, that given these latest high jinx, took place at Canning Town, a working class area, where most people were just trying to get to work trying to earn their daily crust. More often than not these demonstrators are from a different background altogether.
I do agree with one poster, can't remember who it was, who said the c'leb supporters, did the cause no good at all, many of whom said they were "very concerned" hence throwing their names behind XR, but didn't think they would rein in their air miles........yeah we know "plant a tree". Just naff right off with that, they still haven't got the message, people don't want to be lectured by those whose own carbon footprint is far greater than the average individual. As for this latest debacle, I know they'd like everyone to go back to living off the land, but needs must, and whilst there be many of the working population that support their ethos, I think they may find that most people need to be out in the cut and thrust of the working world.
