Hursty do you take it orally or suppositories? The latter stings but is fast acting and makes me feel alive. I’ve heard you can also smoke it but have yet to try.

    Amps most snooker fans are 70+, bit harsh to get them to make changes in this planet.

        Big snooker fan here, but not quite in my 70s. I also don’t give a monkeys about climate change , so maybe we are all selfish?!

          gcw I can see the headlines now “snooker fans want the planet to die, they only care about potting the brown and screwing back for the pink. It’s a disgrace” says Amps from the Jaded Clubbers message board

              Do you not remember the OUTRAGE amongst certain JC members when the hippies interrupted it the other year?

                Not only that but they chop down trees to make the tables and cues - how bloody dare they?!?!

                    Trump will be front row at the next masters

                      We’re the fucking mugs.

                      Al. Do you think that the move towards greener electricity is the the thing driving prices up?

                      I want my leccy cheaper not greener!

                        Going greener isn’t about cheaper it’s about what’s best for the planet. I would assume at some point in the future the cost will reduce as it becomes more efficient to produce. Until then we pay a premium for doing the right thing. I’m good with that. The demand for everything cheaper is what’s wrong with society. Cheap on the whole equals shit, whether it’s food, clothes, electrical, cars etc etc

                          Smallman1 I think that’s classed as a hate crime now

                            gcw maybe your kids will give a monkey’s, you’ll be long gone by the time it’s far too late.

                              hugopal We’ve better sense than your parents clearly.

                                Finland’s been one of the best decarbonizers in the world, yet we also have very cheap energy. Weird, huh?

                                RichM The high cost of energy isn’t just bad for consumers and energy security, it’s bad for the economy. It’s a positive deterrent to manufacturers setting up business here as opposed to elsewhere. Electricity isn’t a luxury like cars or clothes. It’s half the price in France but they weren’t stupid in enough to turn their back on nuclear. Our energy policy and obsession with net zero is nuts. We contribute 1% to global emissions for fucks sake.

                                    alistair French electricity is state owned and subsidised. You wouldn’t want that, surely? Businesses need to make a profit, right?

                                      alistair We contribute 1% to global emissions for fucks sake.

                                      And what about our responsibility to emissions from China and other manufacturing nations where we have goods made?

                                        alistair so what you are saying is fuck the planet because it’s too expensive to try and preserve it. Seems very short sighted to me. Sometimes you have to pay to do the right thing.

                                            RichM No, that’s not what I am saying. I see the government has now pivoted to a third runway at Heathrow. Is that destroying the planet too
