If you listened to only the MSM and social media you’d think that 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg was Jesus Christ come down from heaven to save the world.
You may think I’m exaggerating for comedic effect, but sadly I’m not. Go on Twitter and search her name and you’ll see what I mean.
Fortunately, people are starting to see the truth and one is none other than Jeremy Corbyn’s brother, Piers Corbyn.
quote.Quote:Jeremy Corbyn’s brother today branded environmental activist Greta Thunberg an ‘ignorant brainwashed child’ who is being ‘abused by manipulative adults’.
End of quote.Piers Corbyn, 72, a “climate change denier” who runs forecasting firm WeatherAction, said the 16-year-old who is visiting Britain from her native Sweden is ‘wrong’.
Note the age gap. Intelligence you’re born with. Wisdom is earned with age.
quote.Quote:Reposting a BBC News article titled ‘Teen tells UK politicians ‘listen to climate scientists’, he tweeted: ‘Listening to an ignorant brainwashed child is deranged.
End of quote.The crazy part isn’t that the AGW movement is exploiting a young girl, it’s that politicians are listening to a teen. Virtue signalling Wombles is all I can say.
quote.Quote:‘I am an actual scientist of physics, meteorology, astrophysics and climate and say Greta Thunberg is wrong and suffers mental abuse by manipulative adults.’
[…]Piers runs WeatherAction, which has been questioned for its unusual methods of forecasting patterns, but he is adamant that man-made climate change is a hoax.
I’d call it a fraud.
quote.Quote:Yesterday, Labour leader Jeremy, 69, met with Greta, who is visiting the UK to express her support for the ongoing Extinction Rebellion protests in London.
[…]The Swedish Nobel Peace Prize nominee has sparked a wave of youth climate protests around the world and yesterday met political leaders in the Commons.
[…]Greta also met Liberal Democrat leader Sir Vince Cable, Caroline Lucas from the Green Party and the Westminster leaders of the Scottish National Party and Plaid Cymru, Ian Blackford and Liz Saville Roberts.
[…]Speaking at an event in the Palace of Westminster, Miss Thunberg later said her future and those of her fellow children had been ‘sold’.
[…]Environment Secretary Michael Gove told Greta she had been heard and admitted ‘we have not done nearly enough’.
He said: ‘Suddenly in the past few years it has become inescapable that we have to act. The time to act is now, the challenge could not be clearer, Greta you have been heard.’
Shadow Home Secretary Diane Abbott tweeted that Greta gave a ‘great speech’ and was ‘showing adults the way forward’.
She added that the activist’s climate change message is ‘so powerful and important for all our futures, and especially for the youngest generations.’
The article then nose-dives into a short biography and history of climate crusader (their words) Greta Thunberg herself. Interestingly though, her mother has written a book about climate change – although I’m sure it was a coincidence it was launched on the same day as a school strike organised by her daughter.
Piers Corbyn is right. This is exploitation and manipulation bordering on child abuse. Politics is a brutal, dishonest, and deceptive game where the most despicable rise to the top. The topic of man-made climate change is all about politics. Children should not be a part of it. The AGW movement should be ashamed of themselves.
