'We must live more sustainably' says Jeremy 'Seven Homes' Irons

“We must live more sustainably,” he growls from Pride Rock – as he probably doesn’t call a single one of his seven homes, not even the pink castle in Co Cork, because in real life he’s not a lion at all but a Sherborne-educated luvvie who takes himself very, very seriously called Jeremy Irons.

Increasing global population would put an intolerable strain on world resources, and the gulf between developing countries and westerners living a bountiful “pie-in-the-sky” existence must be addressed.

“One always returns to the fact that there are just too many of us, the population continues to rise and it’s unsustainable,” “I think we have to find ways where we’re not having to scrap our effluent junk and are a really sustainable planet.”

Natural systems of selfregulation may stop population growth, he said: “I suspect there’ll be a very big outbreak of something because the world always takes care of itself.”

The 61-year-old actor went on to speculate that either disease or war, “probably disease”, could become nature’s way of halving the population.

What is it about Greenies and their pervy yearning for the apocalypse which is going to teach us all a lesson for messing with mother Gaia? And what is it about people with seven homes? This is the same number as are currently owned by our terrifying new environment minister Chris “Chicken Licken” Huhne. Al Gore, the Prince of Wales and Zac Goldsmith have similar numbers, I’m sure.

Could it be that “sustainability” is a concept one only truly understands when one has grown so incredibly rich that one is able to shelter from the consequences of one’s eco-fanaticism in the seclusion and comfort of one’s many agreeable homes?

I find it rather difficult to choose to attend an entertainment venue where the "artist" who is to perform has willing revealed himself to be a completely ignorant hypocrite in real life.

Thanx !

Beam me to Planet Gore !

“Jeremy Irons is hard working actor who has earned his riches. He should not be laying a moral rap on “the little people” that is based on lies. An actor must be good at pretending. They get so good they fool themselves.”

He is no different than Al Gore who flits around the world in a private jet, lives in a huge home, and moves on ground in large carbon spewing SUV’s and limo’s while demanding the rest of the world cut back use of energy. No different than President Obama who fires up Air Force One for a date night with Michelle in New York. No different than Nancy Pelosi who demands and gets private government jet service to whisk her to and fro.

Today’s celebrity and political elites live a lifestyle of luxury, decadence, and conspicuous consumption while demanding the rest of us conform to their dictates regarding behavior and resource consumption. They are no different than the European royalty of the 1700’s against whom our founding fathers rebelled over far less intrusion in their everyday lives than today’s ruling elites exert over our existence.
