Terrorists' vandalising Stone Henge and trying to force govt policy

I'm from NI, they're not terrorists. YABU @FoxJTT047101111.

How did throwing themselves under a horse, carrying out bombings and arson attacks win women the vote ?

Sometimes it takes more than polite petitions.

They are dicks, but they are not terrorists, not in the way most people view what a terroist is. Unless you can terrorise stones.

And what are you using that enables you to write on this post? Something made with oil derivatives and probably energised by the same?

How do they know, in nature orange colour comes from carrots and oranges (strangely enough) have they tested the colouring against that type of stone? What if the rain that next falls is slightly acid?

it was bad enough when they were stopping sick babies getting to hospital. Blocking the road with a boat...tower by a range rover. What pathetic twats

How does throwing orange powder on Stonehenge improve/stop/alleviate/help find a solution to this 'ecocide' ?

I think there is a difference between terrorism that seeks to kill and terrifying, and vandalism, no matter how high profile the target.

But also think that Just Stop Oil are doing so much damage to the cause they claim to care about. There has been a really good consensus across society of the need to move away from oil and gas and to net zero. There's enormous progress been made already, as well as lots still to do. But in this election for the first time in 30 years we're seeing a new political party emerge with very clear climate denialism and opposition to net zero. They won't win, but by stealing votes from the Tories they'll tempt them to go the same way to win them back. I hold Just Stop Oil at least in part responsible for turning people away from environmentalism and fuelling this really damaging reactionary movement.

Over 70 different species of lichen some of them rare

I think some people don’t understand what ecocide is

"a bit of stone"
I think some people don't understand what Stonehenge is....

The views of Lord Carlile of Berriew Q.C, say different that the methods used equal terrorism methods.

Common sense would tell me @FoxJTT047101111 that Lord Carlile was probably referring to property being destroyed by a bomb or incendiary device or something similar, thereby causing risk to life and limb. Not having some paint sprayed on it (as much as I disagree with this.)

“Terrorism” ?? please.

If that’s terrorism then what was this ?

Deepwater Horizon

Oil extraction is responsible for ecosystem collapse, mass extinction of species, and dangerous changes to our climate.

And people are upset about the cornstarch based paint on a bit of stone.

I read that the curators are investigating the extent of the damage. So they've no idea if there's been any damage. Apparently it was made out of cornflour.

The government are having a laugh calling it an act of vandalism. Don't they want to build a road under it?

The police are a joke in this country. Desecrate an ancient monument, glue yourself to a motorway and bring traffic to a standstill, March through London with racist signs and they do absolutely nothing. Misgender someone on Twitter and they send a squad to your door.

And the actions of these half wits helps with that how exactly?

Harming the environment to save the environment. It's an unusual approach.

So you're worried about a bit of ancient lichen, and the rest of the world is going to shit

They were saying on the news it won't just rinse off as it's embedded into ancient lichen and they're consulting specialists on how to get it off.

They are just idiots. I can't fathom how attacking Stonehenge highlights their cause. Is oil extracted from Stonehenge? Is Oil refined at Stonehenge? Is Stonehenge a big consumer of oil?

The last time JSO turned up to sit in the road near to my friends home, three of them turned up seperately in fairly new 4x4s (not electric). They were parked outside her house and she has photos. The hypocrisy after a bunch of them went round deflating tyres on other people's 4x4s.

I think what they are doing is appalling. But they aren't terrorists. I grew up in NI during the 70's and 80's. We know a thing or two about terrorists here. These idiots are vandals.

They've damaged a lot of stuff.
