- and who is paying for it?

Nice fortnight's free holiday for the Delegates.

- and just what qualifies the inumerable 'Delegates' to  represent all the taxpayers?

Why would you assume that the delegates are having a holiday? Is it because that is what YOU would do? Maybe their work ethic is stronger than yours. I certainly hope so.

NO - Because I would NOT be there.

Better things to do with my life - than try and get myself on a freebie gravy train of self-perceived importance pursuing 'creative crusade industry'.

Are all the Aids seminar 'delegates' - and other similar Quango collectives -  still attending annual get-togethers?

It is very likely that they have 'better things to do' as well. However, somebody needs to try to make this world better for future generations. Sad

Most of it is a load of hot air.

Big business mainly trying to greenwash their image while continuing to profit from fossil fuels.

According the BBC there's a degree of uncertainty over the weather at the weekend. So not much idea less than 24 hours away.

Yet, they tell me the temperature will be between 1 and 4 degrees warmer in about a decade from now. Some 86'400 hours away.

Bloody clever lot.

Bit of a mouthful asking for that ticket down at the railway station.

Could do it all with video conferencing at a fraction of the cost.
