Farmers around the country are hailing this man (so far anonymous) as a hero!!

It's a pity it wasn't silage time. He could have wrapped them up nicely in a big green bag.

Emma Thompson is no DiCaprio.

As Brenda Lee (nearly) sang: "I'm slurry, so slurry...."

Apr 29, 2016 at 10:23 AM | Unregistered CommenterCharlie

Why make her so alluring compared with reality?

Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the slurry,
When I take you out in the slurry with the fringe on top!
Watch that fringe and see how it flutters
When I drive them high steppin' strutters.
Nosey folks'll peek through their shutters and their eyes will pop!

So the liberal luvvy Emma "I'm an Actooor" Thompson breaks a high court injunction and does not get arrested.

Good to see the law so evenly applied.

Darling Emma is a object lesson is "sleb" ignorance.
It is a sad reflection on society that know-nothing slebs can have such influence.

I get a feeling of déjà vu. As with animal rights protesters, when the harmless idiots like Emma Thompson are given a free pass to flout the law and the BBC laps it up, then the less savoury characters are likely to take note. They won't turn up and bake cakes. Greenpeace and Emma will then say "No, nothing to do with us".

Emma and her luvvies issued another complaint yesterday when they discovered the honey wagon's contents were not exactly green manure. The entire ambience of the demo was ruined by an organic farmer, her supporters claimed. The media did not even come close to telling the whole sorry mess, nor did they come close.

If oil industry executives ever want somewhere to hold a televised meeting, they can invade Emma's home. Even better if she doesn't like it. The BBC can film her calling the police, and assessing how polite and efficient their response times are, at answering the phone.

If the Police did show up, they could be further assessed for inclusion into the Police Academy, of acting "seriously concerned about this situation", whilst doing nothing at all.

Alternatively, could a group of farmers drive to Emma's in their tractors, having invited themselves for sunday lunch? They could bring a slurry tanker, and park it outside.

Sat opposite to Emma on a train once. First class of course, and she was reading the Guardian.

Apr 29, 2016 at 12:06 PM | Unregistered Commentergeronimo

Ah, she looks so, erm, 'fragrant'.

Apr 29, 2016 at 12:15 PM | Unregistered CommenterCheshireRed

its career buildup , for lefty scum..

this is how their parents and grandparents became rich: hard work, by destroying nuclear industry with "ludite" actions, then clamoring a place at the banquetting tables to make the feeding off the carcass "official".

We have a society with the most imbecillic at the top

this is in the shadows changing: China is growing and getting rich and does not have any of this
They have many problems but these get solved while we toy around with tranny toilets, proud gays, fracking dissent etc.

She lives not far from me in a big and expensive house in a relatively wealthy part of London (West Hampstead).
She's a city-dwelling smoked salmon socialist who hasn't got a clue about fracking or farming. People round our way think she's just another thick luvvie who keeps making a fool of herself.

Oh, and her eco-cook sister uses gas stoves for her cooking. 'Nuff said.

Top dressing Emma, designed by Chris Ofili?

For her next protest Emma Thompson should go to Port Talbot and tell the steel workers why highly priced, heavily subsidised, unreliable energy is vital for Britain's future.

Apr 29, 2016 at 4:06 PM | Unregistered CommenterRoy

I think I have seen enough of her movies.
Too bad, I have enjoyed her performances.

Apr 29, 2016 at 4:46 PM | Unregistered Commenterhunter

Why is she back in the UK? She doesn't like the UK:

‘A tiny little cloud-bolted, rainy corner of sort-of Europe, a cake-filled misery-laden grey old island.’

Sooner the harpie returns to her beloved France the better.

I don't even know who she is.

Apr 29, 2016 at 8:35 PM | Unregistered CommenterJohn Silver

Emma Thomson's full of it,
Thought she'd just stepped in it,
Bet she prayed to her forgotten God,
When facing the sprayer squad......

I thhhaaaaaankkkk yoooo

'I don't even know who she is.'

she is the new 'poo-girl'

Apr 30, 2016 at 2:15 AM | Unregistered CommenterEternalOptimist

She's the new sh-it girl, surely?
Or shattagirl!

Or the new smelly spice

I can only dream of drilling crews invading one of her film shoots, being loved up by the media for it, and not suffering any legal or financial consequences.

I used to be indifferent to actors and singers' opinions but I'm beginning to hate them.
Not so much because of themselves but the supine way the media accepts and amplifies their propaganda.

I can only hope that a future court of trendy public opinion does the 180deg turnaround they did on MMR vaccines (who? us?) and these idiots go down in history as the reactionary bigoted airheads they deserve to be seen as.

What is the difference between Emma Thompson and Russell Brand

Russell Brand the Sh.t is stuck to the inside

What's the difference between Emma Thompson and a supermarket trolley..?

A supermarket trolley has a mind of its own....

Looking at Josh's cartoon, I felt the nursery muse approach, but probably not far enough.

I'm a little haystack
Yes I am
Covered in sh*t
Ready to be ham

I'm a biggish actress
Course I am
No brains at all
So who gives a damn

I'm am big protester
Full of sh*t
Oh that rotten farmer
He stole our skit.

Oh that hunky policeman
He's our mate
He eats our cake
And takes us t'the gate

Fracking's so bad
It must be stopped
Save the Earth, then
Champagne can be popped.

It seems Emmanure has ditched the Labour Party and anti-fracking, and gone off on another tangent now:

Protesting about drilling for gas by cooking in a fossil fuelled mobile kitchen using - gas.

Really you couldn't make it up.

May 6, 2016 at 11:32 AM | Unregistered CommenterKeith Willshaw

Keith Willshaw.

But you must be aware that Emmanure tells there is bad gas and good gas. Fracked gas is evil, wicked and nasty; good gas, which we use exclusively, is an enviro friendly, carbon neutral, biofuel (like that friendly farmer tried to give us the makings of). What's that, they both contain methane: horrors that's a pernicious greenhouse gas!! Turn it off before the media see us.

Another day in the life of country folk and their s'leb visitors, now b**gered orf.

The story that keeps on giving.
