Financial Rebellion encouraged by Extinction Rebellion

[Cherie]

Extension Rebellion want people to stop paying their mortgages and take out loans they don't intend paying to force the government to do address climate change

You can tell these people are not in the real world

When the Bailiff calls maybe we can direct them to Extension Rebellion :idc:

Can't see that one getting much of a following, I wonder do those pushing the agenda actually even have mortgages

The woman from Extension Rebellion currently being interviewed on 5 Live does not have a mortgage and has now told Emma Barnet she shouldn't ask about her personal circumstances lol

Well whether she has a mortgage or not is pretty relevant to the conversation when she's telling others to gamble their homes

Yes, she was asked would she take out a personal loan that she wouldn't pay back and she clammed up

I will be going ahead with this as soon as Cherie gives me her mothers maiden name :smug:

Gail Bradbrooke was the lady just interviewed on 5 Live who doesn't have a mortgage and wouldn't answer when asked if she would take out a personal loan that she wouldn't pay back

To be fair the government does need to sort themselves out when it comes to environmental awareness, and grabbing them by the walletballs is a good way to make them pay attention.

but I do agree most of the XR crazies probably don't have mortgages, unless their parents made them buy their basements :joker:

will you be stopping your mortgage/rent payments then?

[Oliver_W]

will you be stopping your mortgage/rent payments then?

Well no because the house was "sold" to me by my grandparents, and I'm paying them their remaining mortgage as rent, so it's not really my choice for it to be not paid...

Edit: So yeah, that gives me about as much right to say what other people should do with their mortgage as the apocraphyl XR loonies :joker:

My comment was on extention rebellion not extinction ... personally if they think that would change anything they are silly. You'd just end up homeless, in prison or both. They need to rethink that strategy for something that's going to impact on business that are massive polluters. And raise awareness that way.
