    As for St Greta of Thunderberg over 25 years ago a very similar speech was delivered to the UN Earth Summit by Severn Suzuki. She didn't have the benefit of media-savvy wealthy parents and slick PR. A lot of St Greta sounds very familiar...

    Severn Cullis-Suzuki is a Canadian environmental activist, speaker, television host and author. She has spoken around the world about environmental issues, urging listeners to define their values, act with the future in mind, and take individual responsibility. She is the daughter of Canadian environmentalist David Suzuki.

    She would be right. We should take personal responsibility. You can call these conpanies greedy and they are.

    Short of population control the best thing someone can do is boycott global companies, buy local produce, ditch fast fashion and trainers etc and buy local/second hand goods (if governments arent going to do it).

    But we wont, some people cannot cause of finances, most will not because its not their problem, someone else should take the hit

    So if the 3% don’t vote at all, that’s about 54/46 in favour of Remain, assuming for the moment this poll is reflective of the masses and the canvassers didn’t just pop into Coffee #1 in Islington High Street.

    I’m guessing that despite what is again the narrowest of margins the Remainers will claim a decisive victory and that’d be the end of it?

    Footnote: the polls were largely claiming a victory for Remain in 2016 were they not?

    In these days of heightened security how were they allowed to rock up outside and attempt this bollocks without police intervention?

    Presumably there was a thought crime being perpetrated down the road where somebody gave what appeared to be a disapproving look at someone else who felt threatened, so the Rozzers dashed off to help set up the internet campaign to ruin that fella’s career?

    Don’t the polls go back 3 years at the end of this month, Bob, leading to dark mornings and even darker days ahead?
