Sometimes greens do things which even they struggle to explain.
Eco-warriors target Jeremy Corbyn by glueing themselves to his home in bid to force Labour green policies – but he REFUSES to meet them and instead sends wife out to return flowers given to him by protesters

Climate change protesters glued themselves to Jeremy Corbyn‘s home today as they continue to cause chaos around London‘s transport network.
Four activists who sat outside the Labour leader’s home in Islington, North London, said they were are ‘all Jeremy Corbyn supporters’ but want the Labour Party to go further than declaring a ‘climate emergency’.
But Mr Corbyn refused to speak to the protesters and his wife Laura Alvarez was sent outside to return gifts of Easter eggs and flowers that had been given to him by the activists earlier.
The protesters later said they felt guilty about their actions and 55-year-old Tracee Williams added the group ‘felt terrible’ about upsetting Ms Alvarez.
It is unclear exactly what the protesters want Labour to do, while the party have not been spelled out what their green plans are to tackle the ’emergency’.

What rational explanation is there for greens to glue themselves to the private home of their main champion in the British parliament? After giving him and his wife Easter gifts?
My personal theory is, they all got a little confused because of the superglue.
Over the last week in Britain, eco-activists have been using gallons of superglue to attach themselves to every conceivable surface.
During this period they must have absorbed substantial quantities of cyanoacrylates, and mildly toxic petrochemical solvents like acetone, liberal application of which is the fastest way to dissolve a superglue bond.
Perhaps all this inadvertent glue sniffing is finally having an impact.
Leave them there and they’ll know better than to try that again.
This being Britain, can they expect rain? heh he
Meanwhile China is building new coal plants. Why don’t these people protest in China? 30 years ago in Tiananmen square protesters were willing to die for political freedoms. If these climate protestors aren’t willing to do the same thing for allegedly even a greater cause, they are a joke. Why should anyone take them seriously?
They would disappear into re-education facilities, aka concentration camps, pronto. No kudos in that.
I am stuck on Corbyn,
’cause Corbyn’s stuck on me.
More like, “Stuck on stupid.”
A fine occasion to trot out that phrase, eh?
Excellent!
No pictures prompts a question.
What portion of their anatomy is being glued?
Probably by prior agreement. Jeremy is a watermelon. He needs more traction to force his green policies on his party.
Birds of a feather, flock together. In this case, the chickens have come home to roost.
Anyone who believes that the number of nut cases is declining worldwide just has to meet a few of the more extreme climate alarmists.
I’m generally disappointed with the glues I buy, did they find one that works ?
It may be worth while to find by which company makes super glue. If these people keep this up the stock could go up.
Will gorilla glue try and compete; I can just see the future ads and promo’s. Don’t you just love capitalism.

They got their headline. That’s all they wanted.
In a related note, one of the new nuts in the US Congress has called on her followers to go the US southern border and go on a “hunger strike” to protest something or other. If they get a headline, I doubt any of them will lose any weight.
If they don’t get a headline and continue, no great loss.
I once glued a turtle to a fence post in Tennessee.
We used to catch snapping turtles, then paint our initials on their shell before releasing them.
In Illinois.
Could be that they just picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue.
The dangers of power-tripping on Kragle were well documented in the Lego movie.
These protesters should not have been using glue made from petrochemicals. They should be showing us how it’s going to be done in a post-fossil-fuel world. Glue will be made the same way it was in the pre-fossil-fuel days, from the bones, hooves and other discarded parts of worn-out horses. There will of course be lots of horses hauling stuff around, just as there were in the good old days, so glue will be one of the commodities that won’t become unavailable.
The old type of glue wasn’t convenient; you had to heat it to soften it, then wait for it to cool down and harden, and it smelled really bad. I’m just old enough to remember my father using it in carpentry; and I’m really glad it’s not around any more, thanks be to fossil fuel.
