Fight them on the streets. Its time to give them some discipline that they've not ever experienced which makes them the ignorant, intolerant people they are.

They want war. Let's give them it.

Why don't these people ever try breaking into Downing Street?

Anyone have the answer for that? Why is their target always the general public. Mainly the working class?

Dont make much sense to block a load of humans using their own power to get around when you are complaining about the climate changing.

Spose I might watch past rotherhithe and my favourite pub l, the brunel now. Just to see if anything exciting happens.

Ive not been this perched since thingammy had to stop for a **** 3/4s of the way round. Maybe that's what it's all about..methane!

That's not how it works at all, high tide is used to fill a tidal reservoir and the potential energy is then released at a steady rate until the next high tide refills the reservoir. It's actually one of THE most steady and reliable forms of renewable energy, with huge potential. Crucuially - the potential energy is stored naturally and can create a controllable and steady power generation without relying on batteries.

The tech just isn't quite there yet, which is what he should have focussed on in this debate. Tidal energy will be a great energy source when it's better developed.

Ree Smogg mounting an entire argument based on a complete misunderstanding that tidal energy only generates energy when the tides are turning. Umm.

I don't know how educated Ree Smogg is or isn't but I do know he didn't do his homework on tidal energy, because he insists "it only gives energy twice a day" 3 or 4 times and that's simply incorrect.
