Greta Thunberg, Amazing or not.?

Amazing.

That’s how the debate works MawB.

Jeremy Corbyn's brother, Piers said that she's " a brainwashed ignorant child being abused by manipulative adults " This was in April of this year.

He's right !

gillybob you could always encourage your grandkids to join XR. There must be a local group. Maybe it would be a good thing to widen their horizons.

Why do you see it as rubbishing, The whole of Gransnet works by putting up opinions doesn’t it.?
Otherwise we would have to preface every topic with a rule that only those who agree should post.

That’s how the debate works MawB

That’s not debate, that’s arguing ad hominem

And Trump has now proved himself to be a complete idiot. Again.

Or apparently not MawB

I do not want my DGC to live their lives with the threat of this “grim reaper kid” hanging around them. You know if truth be told I bet their collective CF would be far lower than hers.

The girl has got herself all worked up over a picture of a Polar Bear when she was at school.

A touch of research her parents could have done with her is to point out that in some areas of the Arctic there are many more Polar Bears than there were 40 years ago.

The earth is not about to explode. This girl needed reasurrance, not adults going along with her intense beliefs. For their own benefit.

Any adults lauding this poor girl who is clearly very distressed should question the attention themselves.

Because it will stop And I worry for Greta then.

It's amazing how opposite Piers and Jeremy Corbyn are.

I can't be doing with child prodigies. Precocious brats.

By the time those children are our age gillybob they could well have something terrifying to worry about.

But best we sit back and do nothing.

I doubt if she can be doing with narrow minded grumpy old English women.

Not that we have on here of course....

I wouldn’t want them to join the hypocrite brigade gonegirl they are all very environmentally aware , they never fly (well they might’ve had one very short flight if TC hadn’t have gone t*ts up) . I think their collective conscious’ are clear .

Well that is what Gransnet is MawB

Some opera singers verge on the neurotic so it's bound to rub off on the children.

And that's actually all you have against her? That you think she is precocious? And a "brat"?

Okay gonegirl but I bet my 3 DGC put together have a lesser CF than most children.

You never know gillybob. If they work hard at school and do well, they might well go up in the world. Everybody has a chance.

Fingers crossed.

Yes. They could well have.

Wasn’t it your own DGS who was flying to America? Having taken part in the recent E protests ? Forgive me of course if I’m wrong.

Yet you are happy to insult someone else’s Child

The title of this thread should have been "only say yes if you think Greta is amazing, otherwise we'll insult your families".

You never know gillybob. If they work hard at school and do well, they might well go up in the world. Everybody has a chance.

Fingers crossed

Could you please explain this comment gonegirl

I could take offence at my grandsons being called hypocrites, but I won't. Not necessary really.
