Only 7 responses you need to people trolling Greta Thunberg’s Bristol speech
Greta Thunberg’s been in the UK today talking to thousands of school children in Bristol.
The teenager, who was welcomed by chants of ‘Greta, Greta’, told the Bristol Youth Service Strike 4 Climate event that they were being betrayed by those in power. ‘We are the change, and change is coming whether you like it or not.’
Not everyone was happy to see her here and some people were furious. People like ‘political commentator and Leavers Britain spokesperson’ Suzanne Evans, for instance.
And these are the only 7 response you need.

To all the "adults" trolling Greta Thunberg please just at take a look at yourselves. You are trolling a child.
On a separate note, is there a correlation between climate deniers and Brexiteers?

#GretaThunberg is currently trending, not because she's a leading voice in raising the alarm about impending climate catastrophe, but because a bunch of boomers are complaining about being made to feel like they've trashed the planet for all humanity. Which they have.

Ah, so nice to see Greta trendi…oh wait, it's a bunch of boomers saying climate change is fake, or people bullying the poor lass for having a voice. The best one is people saying "SHE'S SprEAdInG CoRonAViRUs!!"
Wind your flipping necks in you utter cretins. #GretaThunberg

I have absolutely no idea why a middle aged conservative man is so threatened by a young, progressive, opinionated female who is raising awareness on the biggest issue facing our planet and calling out the perceived wisdoms and core beliefs of many middle aged conservative men. https://t.co/ltQgraLEgi

Implicit in criticism of #GretaThunberg " that she should be in school" is the idea that children haven't earned the right to speak in the adult world. In reality you earn the right to speak by saying something important and meaningful, which most of her critics have never done.
