Cathedral Climate bore event

12.10.2009 18:18

I did Not attend and dont know if it WAS a bore, but, what I see from the photos is what I suspected of these WDM and SCACC type events....A sea of WHITE and sometimes Green faces.
This is not necessarily a bad thing in itself, but, it seems to me, that none, or very few anyway of these middle class do-gooders seem to ever get the point.

Eat the rich. Act now.
