"I'm very sorry I'm ruining your day and potentially ruining your vacation, wedding, job prospects, etc. I'm truly sorry, I is, but I cannot stop being an utter taint."

[Upsurging]

I'm guessing this echo warrior didn't charge his phone by solar panel!

[RossKempOnYourMum]

Why is he filming in selfie mode? Oh yeah, because it's all about VIRTUE SIGNALLING

[joshuapymm]

I wonder if he realises that the general public really dont care about what hes saying, they just wanna go on holiday

[mellovox]

Adorable how he uses all the modern conveniences available to him, textiles, iPhone, glasses, yet still manages to muster the arrogance to protest the system that created it.

[Gueli]

I am sure that if a small percentage of the young people at these protests went to uni to study engineering and use that knowledge to actually reduce our impact on the planet instead of being at protests every 2 months the future would be brighter

[patricka.crawley]

Wouldn't be so bad but he's the pilot.

[tejsoneji]

Push him over and subdue him and say "He could easily have been a terrorist, what do I know?"

France has yellow vest, Hong Kong has yellow ribbon. And now, England has yellow panty. 😄

[trvplxrd]

Nothing an uppercut wouldn't solve

[LossyLossnitzer]

If he did that on a US flight could you imagine what the police would have done with him. I hope he gets put away in prison and him and his family gets their passports taken away because they need to use transport to go out of the country.

[alcoholandfun]

Haven't had the chance to go on holiday for 5 years. If that had been my plane, he'd be dragged off and used as fertilizer. You know, natural like 🙂

[charlietm]

Give him a 12 month prison sentence as a deterrent, you will see 80% of these idiots calm down, there's no safe spaces in jail.😂

People like Abby Grant are sick hypocrites. She probably has 3 devices charging, heats her home, has a car and goes on 2 trips a year by air travel. Let her walk from London to Dublin. Stupid bint.

[Paradiselost]

Where are our air marshalls to take these people down

[sicfaciuntomnes]

Fairly sure refusing to sit down on a plane and disrupting the flight would have landed you in big trouble in most countries... not here though, off you go charles, do take care...

[Simonb]

He’s more bothered making sure he has people filming him for clout.

[Squeaks]

Just kick him out and dont give him a refund and them ban him and his phone

[jaywilliams]

So he didn't stop the plane he caused delay so the plane was using more fuel than it would

[garethmccullough]

We should all be laughing because this guy bought a flight ticket and probably queued for ages and waited to board the plane only to be escorted off to the police station lol
