Morning Show's Super Cringey Interview With Climate Activist Is Straight Out Of 'Don't Look Up'

'I think the children and the future deserve that.'\n\n'Just Stop Oil' activists protested across London this weekend to demand an end to the fossil fuel economy. Meanwhile, the cost of living crisis means many people are paying more & more for fuel. Are oil protests justified?pic.twitter.com/mnnIFlJvQT

So folks have been comparing the weird @GMB morning show interview with the climate activist in the UK with *that* scene from #DontLookUp.\n\nSo we at the @MehdiHasanShow put them side by side & the results are.. astounding. Reality mirroring art!\n\nWatch:pic.twitter.com/0n13zgQ2hd

The IPCC report says we have three years to turn out emissions around or we will face climate catastrophe. We have 28 years to get to Net Zero emissions. We cannot wait for the perfect solution, we need to act now. Well done #JustStopOilhttps://twitter.com/GMB/status/1513411754830835717\u00a0\u2026

She's not an ordinary person she's a journalist with a megaphone.\nFor young people to get their voices heard they have to do 'irritating' things to get on TV.\nIt worked even if Madeley just patronised her.

I stand with the oil protesters. The Gov\u2019t is not acting quickly enough on the climate catastrophe. We must call the Gov\u2019t to account.\n\nI don\u2019t watch @GMB. I don\u2019t feel they treated the young protestor with dignity or respect or took the climate catastrophe seriously.

They have tried EVERYTHING and still governments don't listen! Why won't journos like Turner and Madeley wake up?!https://twitter.com/ClimateHuman/status/1513564975524024323?t=NL0OvuI6b3OZnlcSGPM6kQ&s=19\u00a0\u2026

The general public need to be made aware so that they can vote for a government that tackles climate change!

Young, scientifically literate woman gets mocked live on air by Madeley for advocating exactly what the worlds scientists are advocating for: an end to fossil fuels.\n\nTo quote @DrTedros "Investing in new fossil fuels infrastructure is moral and economic madness"\n\n#DontLookUphttps://twitter.com/GMB/status/1513411754830835717\u00a0\u2026

The paternalistic and patronising questioning of activists by @GMB presenters here is offensive. Remember that the activists\u2019 methods may be triggering for people, but they are completely correct about the science #DontLookUp #JustStopOilhttps://twitter.com/GMB/status/1513411754830835717\u00a0\u2026
