emissions good morning three minutes after ten is the time um insert a random gag about crunchies

and cracker jacks given the fact that it's Friday, depending on generations, and crack on with the conversation.

Which will begin today with a contemplation, I think.

Partly in respect of the COP 26 summit that is gathering pace in Glasgow, but also linked slightly to the insulate Britain protests that have been exercising some corners of the media so much in recent weeks. We did a little phone in. Was it last week, end of last week when we did the, should we stop reporting it? Or was it beginning of this week? All blurs into one after a while, doesn't it? Sometimes I get home and one of my daughters will say,

what did you do on the show today, Dad? And I'll say, I haven't got the first idea. Who knows?

Absolutely clueless. And I've only been off there for an hour and a half by this point. But we did

recently discuss the wisdom or otherwise of reporting on the Insulate Britain protest on the, I think,

fairly reasonable grounds that

if we didn't report upon them, then arguably they would stop. Well, they haven't stopped,

and indeed we haven't stopped reporting on them. And one million pounds is the estimated cost,

I don't know how they calculate these things, but it seems feasible, of three of the bigger blockades.

And in the news yesterday, because some despicable individual, hurled ink at various protesters, including a retired doctor who was interviewed on camera with his face covered in ink.

And then, of course course the woman who drove her

car into um protesters there's a word isn't there for people who drive their cars into crowds

of people or at least there's a word for it when they are uh perhaps uh slightly differently

portrayed in the in the UK what's that word for people who drive cars into crowds of people

oh it eludes me it might come to me a little later in the program but here's the thing right don't don't

I don't want to fall out with anybody today well I say that I mean not until 20 past 10 because I understand as

I've said a million times I was about say until I'm blue in the face,

but that would be a little bit inappropriate given that I've just referred to the poor old fellow getting ink thrown in his mush by an irate motorist.
