Recent Floods and Fracking

ClovenHoof · 2015-12-28 13:07:39

I think anyone who supports Fracking in light of recent events and the dangers of water contamination needs their heads examined. I am not one to give a toss about political issues, but Fracking gives me the creeps.

Yup, anyone who disagrees with an opinion of mine on the internet is clearly a paid shill.

You should see this person's threads - always about civil servants and one time accusing mods of being civil servants. It's hilarious stuff. To be that obsessed with a group of ordinary people - it's just bizarre. Perhaps the OP applied for the civil service (as they could happily have done so - the OP is just an ordinary human being like all who applied for the civil service) and didn't make the cut?

That kind of defence makes your opinions invalid to me.

I see two weeks ago you want to ban civil servants from drinking and have them breathalysed every day.?????

I'm out, you must be bored this morning or you have overdosed on selection boxes. But I'm not wasting any more energy on this thread

Yipee, Do I become a civil servant just because I don't oppose fracking and think your links in the OP are crazy?

Is the point of this thread... fracking causes water contamination, flooding spreads water all about the place, therefore fracking in a country increasingly prone to flooding is a bad idea?

Something like that?

Not sure about the civil servants bit. Kinda lost there.

The fracking rain is getting on my hoop alright. It must be waay cooler to live somewhere sunny like florida. This kip is always wet, cold and damp. Garden centers must be dying on their holes - who'd want to be out in a garden? It'd be washed away in hours anyway. Or anything outdoors? Even the cars are melting in the rain. People wonder why Irish people drink. What else is there to do ffs? It's always raining. If you're not into swimming or badmington, you're fecked.
