Guest essay by Eric Worrall | October 27, 2021
Joanna Lumley, whose glamorous high flying lifestyle includes long holidays in Bhutan, the Swiss Alps, and at least one trip on the Trans Siberian Railway, wants ordinary people's leisure activities and travel to be restricted by a climate rationing system.
Joanna Lumley says wartime-style rationing could help solve climate crisis…
Actor proposes system under which people would have limited points to spend on holidays and luxury items.
Joanna Lumley has suggested that a system of rationing similar to that seen during wartime, under which people would have a limited number of points to spend on holidays or lavish consumer goods, could eventually help to tackle the climate crisis.
The Absolutely Fabulous actor, who has long campaigned against single-use plastic, said legislation could be the only way to curb the amount of waste produced by the public. "These are tough times, and I think there's got to be legislation," she told the Radio Times.
“That was how the war was – stuff was rationed – and at some stage I think we might have to go back to some kind of system of rationing, where you’re given a certain number of points and it’s up to you how to spend them, whether it's buying a bottle of whisky or flying in an aeroplane.”
Lumley, who has been involved in conservation work, said that while many people remained poor, it was largely "the western world that stuffs its face and chucks stuff away".
"Perhaps people have got to think a bit harder," she said. "Maybe more of our holidays should be at home or taking trains, and not hopping on a plane to Magaluf for the weekend … Every plastic bottle you don't buy, every piece of litter you pick up, every piece of meat you don't eat, every small thing counts."

Joanna Lumley famously played a dissolute hedonist in the hit series "Absolutely Fabulous".
I understand Joanna's call for climate rationing. When someone lives a life as privileged as Joanna Lumley, why would they want ordinary people cluttering up their favourite Swiss ski slope?

The British doing what the British do so well: subvert America. Americans need to reconsider their dysfunctional relationship with the British and start purging them out of American institutions. A good place to start would be Wall Street. Wall Street is a rent-seeking waste of space. It should be shuttered along with the City of London and its Judaic privateers holding the Queen's charters. Now, if you would be so kind, Lord Tubby, tell us about Judaic subversion of America or else please keep your piehole quiet.
