Fail to see how he’s killing the planet…not Branson but the fine chap below.

never been inside, only ever eaten grass. Grass that’s years and years old.

Happily sequestering carbon 365 days a year.

bloody idiots….and most celebs are just virtue seeking fools!!

Can I suggest ditching Virgin Atlantic in response to this!

I was fekking outraged, outraged I tell ya by this in 2018. Has he banned it again?

Timescale sarcasm aside.......Does he think banning it again will offset his desire to have 400 of his recent space flights operating per year? 400 per year for the sole stated purpose of making money? Irony? Doesn't even scratch the surface.

You would think when they plan these big international conferences back to back, such as the G20 and COP26 they would place them in the same city and avoid wasting thousands of tonnes of jet fuel and possibly creating millions of tones of CO2 flying Presidents, PM’s staff etc 1500 miles in between. It may just have been a bit more enticing for those major offenders Presidents Putin and Xi to attend as well if they had stayed in Rome
 
I think some of these words may be relevant to the situation

The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) recently announced its annual round-up of the top 20 words of the year: no prizes for guessing what any of them are. In a genius move Waterstones launched rival “Word of the Year” to discover words less travelled.

The winner by some margin was Mumpsimus – from the 17th century English describing someone who insists they are right, despite clear evidence they are wrong.

Nod-crafty - given to nodding one’s head with an air of great understanding when you’re really not listening at all

Smellfungus – a habitual fault-finder; one who immediately takes offence without a second glance.

Spuddle – to be uselessly busy.

Snollygoster – one who abandons all integrity in favour of power.

F ing politicians are all the same. They stand on their moral soap boxes preaching to the world what everyone should do,then do the opposite because they can. Do as I say not as I do comes to mind. Oh and it’s just started snowing here for Halloween. Must be global warming or that brown steer farted
