Fucking lol.

Not a clue.

But enough about Millsy etc etc.

Hursty COP26 has to be the most hypocritical event of the century so far, the amount of CO2 burned for politicians and celebs to attend various functions is ridiculous, they must think we are all mugs

I love the way EVERY gammon on Twitter and Facebook has written the exact same thing, almost verbatim.

I mean, it’s true of course, but at this point it’s already been pointed out by everyone’s Uncle Tony who reads the Telegraph.

      bosstrabs Cheers Dave 😂

      Does anyone believe anything they say or announce? It’s just all laughable, committing to dates in the future when they will be long out of power or influence, what’s the point?

      What stops the next government pulling out of any deals like when Trump came in?

          Hursty do you know if they have offset any of their carbon emissions for the event? I’m guessing they probably have, but press would rather not mention that as it doesn’t fit their agenda

              bosstrabs The idea that you must fight climate change ‘perfectly’, or fight it in a carbon neutral way, is laughable also. Anybody fighting a war would expect casualties.

                RichM Does anyone actually believe in offsetting, the certificates are generated by companies who claim to be investing in carbon offsetting projects but you have to take their word for it….

                On the face of it, it’s a great idea, pay some money and the carbon you emit is offset, but it’s a little more nuanced and complex than that.

                    Hursty Agreed, it’s all for show, they know it will be someone else’s problem. Psychopaths the lot of them.

                      This is a great read, highly recommended -

                      Hursty I’d love to know what offsetting Biden is doing for his 83 car motorcade in Rome

                        I am thinking of getting the train to Amsterdam rather than flying when I potench go there next month.

                          Smallman1 Getting the train back from Amsterdam is great. SO much more pleasant a journey after a heavy weekend than flying from Schiphol…

                            I have been at that airport in some right two and eights!

                            They need to get the overnight high speed network sorted across Europe, absolute scones to be seen in the dinning car at 4am I reckon.

                              Travelling by sleeper train is a great, highly civilised experience, and I did it quite frequently pre-COVID.

                              Choice:
                              a) Have dinner at Beijing station, then board around 7pm, slam back a few train beers in the dining car while pissing about on my laptop till 10pm, haul myself into a bunk (2 or 4 person compartment on the decent trains normally), fall asleep, wake up in Shanghai at 7am for a 10am meeting.
                              b) Get up at some utterly unreasonable hour like 4.30am, 6am get to the airport, 7am flight (delayed 20 minutes), 9am arrival, scoop up bags, mad dash in a taxi across a sprawling city.

                              I’m surprised they withdrew most of the sleepers in the UK because it’s an absolutely superb way to travel.

                                The sleeper trains in Thailand are absolutely magnificent.

                                Not so good in India.

                                  Can you imagine doing the bants doing train beers with Millsy on some epic Beijing-Chiang Mai journey?

                                  The train ride would be longer and more chugging than one of Millsy’s sets too.

                                  I’d end up throwing him off the train, be way too painful.
