Extinction Rebellion is planning to bring more chaos to London with another two weeks of disruption in the run-up to Christmas.

Climate change protestors claim they will target busy shopping and tourist hubs in the capital, including Oxford Circus and Trafalgar Square, over the festive period.

Organisers are plotting another fortnight of disorder over encrypted messaging apps WhatsApp and Telegram.

It comes after the group's 'Autumn Uprising' brought London to a standstill, with Tube protests at Canning Town, a camp out at Smithfield meat market and blockades at City Airport.

Ebenezer Scrooge and the Puritans approve. These modern days Puritans just like the real ones want to get rid of festive Christmas.

They used a highly technological program that could only exist in a highly technological society powered by cheap, energy efficient petroleum products.

If all these extinction rebellion pukes really, truly, and unquestionably believed in their cause, we’d see their dead bodies littering the streets as they showed their true devotion and suicided themselves.

Maybe they should just cancel Christmas. With the UK Muslim population growing as it is, that’s going to happen eventually anyway.

Judging by the videos I’ve seen the past week, they are going to get their asses kicked. It seems the British are finally fed up with their BS.

“Puritans = Good Guys”

The Puritans were Socialists. Look it up.

I thought that was the Pilgrims. They gave it up when it was obviously failing and when women objected to washing other women’s husbands’ clothes.

The Puritans wanted the King to control the economy for the purpose of redistributing wealth?

Intersting claim. Never heard that before.

Yep, proggies/lefties/greenies/anarchists/muzzies/queers/stupidspoiledbrats have gone too far. Normal people are sick and tired of their bs, and the silent majority is finally shedding our silence.

I like kettle corn!

That’s not even Socialism. It’s congregationalsim. Or at worst, communalism.

They kinda remind me of the mob in the final scenes of “Things to Come”.

What a bunch of idiots.

The Puritans had their good points, but they did try to abolish Christmas festivities by law, with varying fines, floggings, and terms of imprisonment for offenders who took the day off, had a fine supper, or frolicked a little. This was both in England and in Massachusetts.

Last week they glued themselves to commuter trains and got the hell beat out of them by the people.

Maybe they’ll glue themselves to buses this week..................

You’re right, I got them mixed up.
