Holy Virgin

What lot of sanctimonious tripe! These eco wowsers can get stuffed. I'm not flying f$&@) Virgin:

TRAVELLERS flying on Virgin Atlantic will soon be offered carbon offsets alongside alcohol and perfume in front of their fellow passengers in an effort to shame them into buying them, The Times reported on today.

The cost of carbon offsetting will depend on the length of the flight and the class of seat – a one-way economy flight from London to New York will cost slightly more than £5 ($11), while a one-way business class flight from London to Sydney would cost about £26 ($59).

A spokesman for the airline said it had decided on the new policy after noticing low participation in schemes offered by competing airlines where customers were presented with the opportunity to offset the carbon emissions of their flight online.

"If the person sitting next to you chooses to offset their flight, it may prick your conscience and you may pay too," the Virgin spokesman was quoted as saying by The Times. .....
