That's a good point I suppose. The active Royals don't have to be grifters, sopping sycophants are too keen to serve up whatever they want on a golden platter .

"Freeloaders" would be a better word maybe. Spongers. Leeches. Parasites?

Hopefully all those tents and sleeping bags can be given to people sleeping on the streets.

Yes it does pay all staff
at each event


Those tents are chucked
as they are no longer clean
all sorts of liquids are inside them

Give the tents to migrants and put our homeless in hotels. That would make more sense to me.

All correct terms, one could even describe them as societal cancer if they wish

Here's the brief basic facts:

Just like in 1969, most "Gen Z's" (young people) don't give a stuff about climate change. They don't give a stuff about LGBTQ+. They are not "woke". Kids, teenagers and Uni students today are the same as we were when we were that age... and we were the same as our parents at the same age.


The idea that this messy scene is "ironic" because it was "Gen Z's" and "All Gen Z's complain about climate change!" is nothing more than a complete outrage-fantasy.
No I have no idea, no more than you have any idea that they were, but what I do know is that they will be aware of climate change environmental issues even if they live under rocks and can almost guarantee that some that attended will support slow marching etc, even if they dont do it themselves...

The point is that we have no idea how many of them left mess behind (it wont be all of them) and we have no idea how many support climate activism (it also won't be all of them). Sure there's likely to be some hypocrites and some overlap but taking a stab at how much those two groups overlap is complete guesswork.

Online hysterics would have us all believe that today's youngsters are all Greta Thunbergs, marching around with LGBTQ flags. 3 years of having a daughter in high school has confirmed that that's maybe 10% of teenagers and the rest are not any different to how we were in high school in the slightest. Literally exactly the same thoughts, attitudes and dramas that I saw in school 25 years ago. Gen Z as a homogenous group is an internet myth.

Now there is the unfortunate fact that some politicians and other influential people seem to be buying into that myth... but that's another discussion.

It pleases me no end that in twenty years or so... and that's not as long as you think... some young person will be saying all this ridiculous **** to you and hitting you with "steamed hams" jokes that moderators don't seem to notice. Think of me the first time this happens to you.
