I like the idea that these protesters have somehow caused mayhem in the busiest city in Sydney, renowned for crappy traffic, which not too long along was suffering huge disruption from climate-induced floods.
Morrison gov’s deliberately negligent mismanagement inaction incompetence and failures regarding the bushfires is continuing… WE NEED THOSE AERIAL WATER TANKERS THE LYING RORTING CORRUPT MORRISON GOV PROMISED 2 YEARS AGO…BUT LIKE EVERYTHING HAVE FAILED TO DELIVER
Instant gratification required from the TLDR generation. You’ll need a Bond villain to change the climate…
