A subset of the above "Queers for Palestine" don't seem to have any
clue what would happen to them were they to visit their beloved
Palestine. Getting thrown off the roof of a building or hanged from a

exploration in favour of transporting fuels from distant countries at
greater expense and increased CO2 output. In so doing costing
thousands of UK jobs and destroying our energy independence and
supply security. Thinks he can do netzero by 2030.
