    I never thought a kid of 16 could have so much gravitas, and as if that isn't enough, so much charisma too - and impeccable English. She undoubtedly has messianic qualities. Compare that with Gove's condescending 'Greta, we hear you.' soundbite? He might just as well have added, 'but don't think we're going to do anything about it.' And compare her with Malala Yousafzai, who was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize and a 'World Malala Day' for thanking god for saving her life instead of the surgeons who actually did save it? Where TF are our priorities?
