National News New Statue

That’s not the only time though, is it? Without a script, she is useless. She didn’t struggle to get her words out, during her famous ‘how dare you’ speech? She was very emotional then but managed to breeze through that. Why? Because she was reading from a script..

Wow, person using a script for a speech, absolutely shocking. No other public speaker has ever done that before, never ever happened before, absolutely not.

Obviously, Greta's message has yet to inspire the young of Nottingham....

I did mean a bit younger than that

Just for @Essexyellows, I expect he'll be making a pilgrimage soon...

Greta Thunberg statue at Winchester university sparks anger

The students' union questions whether the £24,000 cost of the statue could have been better spent.

Shame they couldn't spend the £24,000 on planting a new forest or initiatives to remove plastic from the ocean...pretty ridiculous really

Chances are, they wrote the script themselves. Did Greta? No. Who did then? Again, she’s a puppet.

Who are 'they'? Her parents you mean? Or someone else? I'm not really seeing the problem if you don't have an issue with the actual message (unless I've misunderstood)

She could have written the speech herself, you haven't a clue either way. Plenty of public speakers, including Business leaders, US Presidents and British PMs, have speeches written for them so they are puppets as well then on that basis. Who are these backers you keep claiming?

Just to shock you all - she has a point that we all need to do our bit.

However what that "bit" is varies greatly from home to home and you can`t use a blanket approach.

So we all sit here communicating through the ether while a server shed somewhere consumes enough electric to power a small town.

Some say "Ban the combustion engine" but the electric version has a different environmental cost.

We should all look at the small stuff.... waste, all our waste if it is excessive don`t buy the product. If you don`t need it don`t buy it. And avocado`s...... ban the things...make them illegal.
