Dammit where’s the crazy jihadist in a rental truck when you actually need him..

Why can't we blow them away with water from a fire truck

They clearly believe any fairy tale dished up to them as real science doesn’t support climate change disaster theory ps.

So the government is on track to meet its Paris climate accords and they are protesting it? Moving the goal posts every 5 mins is not a progressive cause at all it’s being impossible to please.. I’d ignore you too!

I knew the greedy selfish aging ignorant conservative flogs who couldn’t care less about the future of their kids and grandkids would be out in force tonight..no worrying because they’ll be too old to care when it all turns to 💩

A government that doesn’t responsibly manage Australian ecosystems is not a representative government.

paul_anforth Misfits

Wow, hundreds?

The truth! Climate change is a political hoax!

Agreed, it's time to place sanctions on the Sun and the moon, until they stop changing our climate. morons

WHEN THE MEDIA PROMOTES IT LIKE GOSPEL YOU KNOW IT IS BASED ON DEEPSTATE $$$

brainwashed is, brainwashed does

And 25m didn’t protest.

Go away please

They didn't succeed in Brisbane so now they're trying their home town... Good luck DanielAndrewsMP 👍

These people have no idea of what climate change is they are sheep

Hundreds... Hmmm not as many come out when it's the weekend.

These protestors can lead the way by turning off all their electricity, sell their cars and dispose of anything made or derived from oil such as frames for eye glasses

None of which have ever or would ever vote for the government.

OK. The truth is that CO2 does not equal man made climate change. There is no measurement to support an atmospheric greenhouse effect caused by CO2. Actually the contrary is proven.

The government is taking action and its costing this country billions, what more do these morons want?

ASA admits that climate change occurs because of changes in Earth’s solar orbit, and NOT because of SUVs and fossil fuels

That's the truth.

That would mean that MILLIONS did not take part and did not demand action. I think that that says everything we need to know.

The toddler will fervently play with it, until they see something new and shiny. And in that instant, the toddler will move on. Give them no energy, give them no time, they crave it. Extinction Rebellion: Aren’t they just the saddest collection of losers around? 3/3

Every decade these types find a new ‘emergency’. Being Y2K, the War in Iraq, Kony and now it’s ‘climate change’. These people will quickly abandon this trend until something more vogue comes along. Just like a toddler with a toy. 2/3

Lets take a look at the crowd: -Teachers (current and former) -University students (majoring in gender studies & East German Basket weaving) -Greens voters -Socialist Alliance voters -Vegans -Failed local artists -I think I saw a dude in some Bondage gear? (WTF) 1/3

I’ll bet none of them have done a scrap of independent research. 🙄

coral reefs and climate change

Newwayofdoing Hundreds? Surely if the majority want this, there would be at least thousands, or tens of thousands.

And the truth is it's the sun driving our climate, not CO2. Been doin' it for 4.5billion years, and not about to stop any time soon.

Hundreds! That’s hilarious.

The Climate Change Fraudsters will do anything to brain wash people into paying more taxes for subsidies to rich investors. Only heavy funding of Research and applied Technology can deliver results to decrease pollution. Current Renewable technologies are a fraud.

These people need to learn the truth

When there is a few million that will be a majority but we know that this is a minority because we educated majority do not get lead by fools!

The CCC is Protesting about a HOAX of man made climate change 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Here’s the truth

Why? It’s a hoax Mann lost! Ball won! The game is up!

With their made in China products. Full of 💩

Why aren’t these people protesting at the Indian and Chinese embassies?
