"Just stop oil"

[Johno please?]

Why are these always middle/upper class hipster looking douches who are probably living on a trust fund.

okay I know the thread is for the others but theyre basically the same.

Vegan extremists trash Harrods and Fortnum & Mason by dumping milk

The group co-ordinated the actions across multiple stores throughout the country, including London, Norwich, Edinburgh as horrified Saturday shoppers watched on.

people should pour milk on them when they do it, I would

I don't agree with these tactics even though I support non violent direct action.

Whether you purchase or throw away that milk its still creating a "demand" for that product, thats the way I see it anyway.

Zero respect for these clowns - I also suspect the police would not be taking the softly soft approach if the “protesters” belonged to a different demographic.

I'm surprised some of these idiots don't get a good hiding tbh.

Just Stop Oil protesters spray Aston Martin showroom in London's Park Lane with orange paint

Demonstrators from the Just Stop Oil environmental group also glued themselves to the road in Park Lane on Sunday. The latest protest comes after two women threw tomato soup over Van Gogh's Sunflowers masterpiece - estimated to be worth £72.5 million - at the National Gallery.

They probably would if they tried it outside on London.

They seem to totally rely on the police coming to save them, that certainly wouldn't happen around here.

Ahhh Ha! The masks have slipped and they've shown their true face, they are just the Marxist anti-capitalist mayday protesters with a new badge.

An Aston Martin showroom is too legit and up market to send some of the lads out, I'd like to see them try that on some dodgy Arthur Daley type car pitch where even buying a motor is intimidating It's only a matter of time before some of them get a good beating. I'm patient....

 

[arknor]

police need to arrest them instantly, night int he ceels at the least, or leave them and don't come to protect them

Just stop oil (puts oil based paint on window to be removed by oil based paint remover)
Not the smartest of people, are they?

Like when some crusties tried to disrupt the old IPE floor not quite appreciating that most of the traders were East End lads and Essex Boys:

Mass brawl on the trading floor

VIOLENT clashes between City traders and environmental protesters left 27 people in police custody today.

www.standard.co.uk

Two Greenpeace members unfurled a banner outside after scaling the walls and abseiling down the front of the building. But the traders fought back and two of the protesters inside were taken to hospital with injuries.[...]

'One trader pushed me against a wall and as I turned back, a very tall trader punched me full in the face. There was a guy unconscious on the floor, so we dragged him out. But initially he was still getting kicked by the traders.

'I thought this was supposed to be professional business. I did not expect it to be like the worst hooligans you see on a Friday night. I have been campaigning for 15 years, but I have never experienced violence like that. Never.'

 

[mysticsniper]

These are a bunch of muppets.

They want to get the establishment to make these changes, but direct their anger at the general public?

Only a matter of time until someone runs them over in a tranny van.

That's why they don't block the odd central London building site. They would be snowed under with Scots, Geordies, Yorks and Lancs trades and labour. Would make the wars of the roses look like a Friday night in town.

All this achieves in my view is:

a.) ******* yet more people off with their cause.
b.) Screwing over the poor shop staff that have to clean this up.

Seriously, I think these people are about to find themselves on the receiving end of a backlash from the public.

Now Just Stop Oil protestors have climbed up the QE2 Dartford Crossing bridge and the rozzers have closed it to all traffic with long diversions in place with huge delays. If Truss wants to do something useful she could tackle this blight on people's lives and stop these charlatans with some effective government actions.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Hopefully they fall off.

 

[shauncr91]

Hopefully they fall off.

And the ambulance service can't get to them.

 

[fez]

There should come a point where you just leave these people to it and you leave the public to deal with them. If they want to climb up the dartford bridge, let em, leave them to it. If they fall its their own ******* fault.

The love the attention. What they are doing us nothing short of hurting the cause they purport to love so much. Its just performative BS that gets them brownie points with the other nutters that think the same way. The peoples minds you need to change are not your upperclass trust fund mates who, like, just really can't because its just all so awful. The sort of **** that travel on daddys dime for a few years and come back with a tattoo and a few ankle bracelets and think they are all worldly.

 

[RobDogDog]

Aren't they just very marginally increasing what they're trying to protest against?

The police will have to drive over as will some workman to clear up the mess using fuel that they otherwise might not have (for the Aston Martin nutter)? Same with when people have to get diverted having to drive longer distances?

 

[PlacidCasual]

Just throw soup at them, taking it out of the can optional.
