Taken from the BC Have your say this comment says it all i think:

Have you noticed that it used to be called global warming?

Now that they've discovered that it's not warming at all it suddenly becomes climate change.

I've got a better phrase - fraudulent taxation. And as usual the EU are right at the heart of it.

its a shame BAA took 5 hours to re-open stansted, thats bang out of order, they should have dealt with it long before flights got cancelled.

Whilst I would never disagree with anyone having a go at BAA, I would still like to know why 'our nations finest' took so long to head 'em up and round em out?

And why wasn't the Terrorism Act thrown at them (maybe if they were right-wing MPs it would have been!)?

exactly lesD, i put it down to political correctness and BAA managers/police covering their backsides, once they realised it was young girls and boys doing a green ram raid, that changed everything

The more people realise that this climate warming, climate change and carbon footprint is a CON the better. Yep it used to be called global warming and then they realised it stopped getting warmer back in 1998. Now it's climate change and ANY severe weather whatsoever PROVES that it is a science! Sorry, but it is all a con to access YOUR tax money. Yes the EU is fully behind it. A non regulated, non audited APPOINTED Commission. BEWARE the EU, be afraid be very afraid of this form of Fascism

Whilst I respect everyones right to voice opinion or protest peacefully, once you break the law to have your voice heard you loose all credability. The action of these people was nothing but recless and for so called middle class hard working citizens to display this type of behaviour is disgraceful.Furthermore have these idiots forgot that our airports are a bit of a security hotspot and that their actions could have resulted in a significant secrity scare.
Laws are there for a reason. It is not up to us to decide which ones we should comply with.The law is the law and I hope all these protesters get what they deserve.Just imagine the cost of the police response as well as the cost and disruption to those whos trips were delayed.
