He probably has more in common with Philip than you might expect. And I hate him for it.

David Attenborough: trying to tackle famine with bags of flour is 'barmy'

BBC presenter links famine to overpopulation and warns if we do not curb growth the natural world will

www.theguardian.com

There's actually a lot of debate and research on the demographic transition, the process of change that brings societies from the point where they have high birth rates and high population growth, to low birth rates and low or negative population growth: and these twats don't seem to want to engage with any of it at all.

Attenborough can't diss a lizard.

The only famous person’s death I can think of that would make me sad would be Bernard Cribbins

Can't wait for the next ten minutes when parliamentary business will be brown nosing the dead fuck and no other business till 22.00. Going to be riveting viewing.

RIP to the unusable National Rail colour scheme, goodnight sweet prince, you will be forever in our hearts.

Don't think he'd have appreciated anything off white.

They'll all be trying to out-toady each other to get the soundbites for the evening news.

Many he'll cheer up the former fans by wearing SS threads again

Didn't he croak about 20 years ago?



Edited to add... Sorry, was thinking of Les Dawson.

Astonishing. As well as being fucking stupid, it seems entirely random. It's basically everybody go to fucking work but we'll pull some useful events.

They better not make us observe any silences on Friday (at work)

Presumably it would be Saturday (day of funeral)? Anyway if we get 'given the opportunity to join a 2 min silence' I'll be asking if celebrating the Duke of Racism's life is in line with our equality and diversity policies.

Presumably it would be Saturday (day of funeral)?

Which is why they’ll want to do it on the Friday as not many people will be in on the Saturday

Crikey.

I was thinking Old Pip had resurrected or something ... the way this thread is "keeping on going".

Maybe. Anyway, in a sane world employers would keep well away from promoting anything to do with a buffoonish racist. But we ain't so it'll be competitive flag shagging all the way. Sir Keith will probably throw himself into the grave.

40%+ of the population are working from home at the moment, (95%+) where I am so I'm not sure how a 2 minute silence might actually work. During the last company ethics presentation I went and had a 20 min kip so seriously doubt they would know whether I'm being silent for 2 mins

Some of us have been going to work throughout though

No, thank fuck, but City Hall has lowered theirs

 

[Shechemite]

You’ll have one soon.
