Channel 4 CHris Packham Is it time to break the law?

Packham has always been a rabble rouser, of course he gets attention he has an extreme opinion on everything, if all his opinions became reality we would all be starving in penury.

He irritates the life out of me. I can’t bear to listen to his hyperbolic rants.

Chris Packham would not know how to be a hypocrite Freya he’s the absolute opposite
I didn’t see the programme but I have a lot of time for Packham and normally agree with his views, whereas I rarely seem to agree with your s Freya so I guess that’s the full story
I don’t know how I would break the law to make a point but
I ve certainly been on marches in the past and could again
People seem very unbothered about the impending doom of the world as at the moment it doesn’t affect them

completely agree with you Bluebelle about Chris Packham, and sadly about people being unbothered.. just sleepwalking into disaster

Franbern The Slow marchers ALWAYS allow public transport (buses), and Emergency Vehicles to pass them.

I'm not sure this is true.

It is - don’t believe the myths put out.

CP is absolutely not a hypocrite. He's refreshingly honest.

freya just for you to get facts correct. The Slow marchers ALWAYS allow publi transport (buses), and Emergency Vehicles to pass them. NOBODY has died due to these demonstrations. However, millions will die due to to climate change.

The impression he gave me was that he was more 'sad' than anything else at the rather silly, very nasty things on twitter. Fortunate he is not female, as those horrible peopl wold have made even worse comments!!!

At no point did he incite violence.

Most big changes to society have come about due to people taking effecfive action, sometimes een violent actions. Ghandi may have 'sat' his way to his country's freedom, but the Chartists had to march and take direct action, Trade Unions did not get their recognition via 'lobbying'. THe vote for Women was fought for through both violent and non-violent actions (most of the violent ones being on the part of The State).

Cannot see how anyone could call Chris Packham any sort of Hypocrite - exactly the opposite to me.

Anyone else watch this?. Wednesday 20th September, at 9.00 pm for Catch up.

Chris Packham, searching his own conscience as to what he is doing to try to prevent the catastrophe that is coming due to human activity causing climate change.

I really felt for the desperation of the young students, putting their own peronal futures on the line for th sake of this cause.

Earlier this summer one of my 13 year old g.chldrn wrote desperate poem about the world burning and nobody listening or doing anything. In five or six years time
she could well be one of these activists. People seem to get so upset when they are caused a slight delay in their journeys, do wonder how they will feel when the water is actually lapping around their knees!!!

Do think it was tremendously brave of Chris Packham, to make this programme. My estimation of him has risen enormously,

I wonder how many have died, after ambulances are stopped on their way to hospital. Packham is inciting violence,but wasn't very happy when it was directed at him. What a hypocrite.

I saw the programme and I do agree with you.

He was impressive, wasn't he. I've long been a fan of his.
What a difficult decision to make, for us all really. I can see both sides of the argument. The state of our planet is more important than any political problems right now.
Shall I be breaking the law? I doubt it. But I must do something.
