Absurd placard spotted at climate demo 28 November 06

I’ve been to a lot of demos in my time, and I’ve seen some pretty ridiculous banners and placards being wielded at them. But none of them have been quite so absurd as the placard spotted by several correspondents at the recent 4 November climate change demonstration in London…
Several people have asked if I was responsible – not guilty! (I have a good alibi – I was not even in the country, since I was giving a lecture in Prague for the British Council). And no, I did not pay any money to the lady in the hat!

It's not fair to mock this woman

She needs care, not ridicule. Just because someone is of weak mind and prone to cultish credulity doesn’t mean we should be making sport of her. Shame on you.

PM of which country? She should say. ;-)

Well done Will, thanks Mark! Good to have the site back up and running again. Looks good I’ll explore … right now!

Backed by the Stop Climate Chaos coalition?

That would make it one of the better things they’ve agreed. That day Aubrey Meyer was busy dishing out a leaflet with another whirlpool motif titled “Stop Climate Confusion”, we can guess the rest.
Nice sign

Nice sign, Mark (“Mark Lynas for Prime Minister”). I’ll do you one better: Move to the USA and make it “Mark Lynas for President.”
Looking forward to your new book.

Mark, if you’ll be Prime Minister I’ll work to have Lynn Vincentnathan elected to President over here!

I don’t think that we should make a big fuss out of it. It’s just a joke and not for real.
