Sky News contributor Chris Smith has scoffed at modern activism, telling host Peta Credlin that 2019 has been “a year dominated by lunacy and stupidity”. Mr Smith’s comments come after the Greens tried and failed to get a hot air balloon over Parliament House on Tuesday emblazoned with the slogan ‘it’s a climate emergency’. “They don't do their homework,” Mr Smith said.

Mr Smith then rounded on animal liberators who trespass on private land to rescue animals at abattoirs, before finally taking aim at Extinction Rebellion. “The animal ‘libbers’ - they go and stay on private land which you’re not supposed to do, so they’ve forced legislation that makes it illegal,” he said. “Then you’ve got the Extinction mob who created these craft classes by sticking themselves to the ground… it’s just total stupidity.

OPINION

On view every night via Sky News! In particular their 'experts' and hosts! Glad he recognises it!

And the lunacy and stupidity from the RW that infest sky and of course Morrison

Smiths sole qualification being, failing year 8 science.
