Did you forget to mention all your foreign holidays you hypocrite?

Nice one English Bob, that’s constructive. I think you’ll find we’re all hypocrites with this in some way. But the best way of dealing with it probably isn’t standing up and pointing at each other
SHE EATS MEAT I’VE SEEN HER
HE LEFT HIS HEATING ON BY ACCIDENT IN MARCH
Everyone’s going to have to change their habits, habits which we’ve been told are harmless, and easy, and glamorous, and our ‘right’. Why not have two holidays a year? Why not drive to work? You deserve it. Why not get these dairy-lee disposables: it’s easier than cheese! Why not buy this new gel washing liquid, in its own pointless plastic pouch?
It’s going to take some time, and we might have to even think about the whole point of our society (ECONOMY ALERT BUY MORE STUFF SAVE WOOLWORTHS BUY DISPOSABLE FLOOR MOPS SINGLE USE ITS EASY). But this sort of journey is only going to help people see. I say we all start thinking of new ways to buy, sell, grow and live. And maybe, just maybe, ask the government to do something too, to stop people who don’t give a shit from getting away with it.
Better than just being snide.
