JSO prevent a mum taking her baby to hospital.

[TRexTara]

I don't know what these people think they are achieving. I think the mum was in a cab which looks like an electric car anyway, they refuse to let her get past.

I now have a fire extinguisher in my car, I’m saying no more.

I think JSO are twats. I try not to fly, drive as little as possible, be careful about what I buy and how I dispose of it. I’ve been to protest marches and you can see the attention seekers for whom the action of protest is the point, not the reason for the protest - that who JSO remind me of.

Looking at those yobs and their behaviour they are clearly part of a cult and brainwashed.

they are achieving the exact opposite of what they pretend they are about.

I would also put money on a whole bunch of them being not interested in the ‘cause’ but in fact professional disruptors paid by someone dangerous.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they are funded by Russian Money to be honest. This kicking off at the same time as yet another Russian Oligarch dying mysteriously, just seems too much of a coincidence. Don’t you think?

I’m going to post this again and make no apology for it.

JSO are a flea on the belly of a dog. They are insignificant. Focus on the actual issue.

Like a flea that carries typhus, they need to be stopped.

Lol

There's some great material in this thread for a comedy

Don’t forget that IvyKaty drives a polluting van and travels far enough for holidays to personally witness famine.

Did you see the news? The Just Stop Pissing People Off counter protesters gate crashed Just Stop Oil’s “Beyond Fucked Banquet”

The flea rather wants attention though wouldn’t you say?

Hence their actions

Saw it & it is really bad form on the part of the Just Stop Oil protesters.
In this case they should have let the lady & baby passed, would have been amazing PR opportunity, but the moron in charge didn’t.

On the flip side here I think people are missing the fact that if the world’s governments weren’t being held over a barrel by oil companies, that have known for years how much damage their product does to the environment yet they & their shareholders prefer to profit from the damage instead of putting things in place to try & fix the problem, the protests wouldn’t be happening!

Governments have the power to stop the protests but they would rather have us all fighting each-other to keep our eyes off cheating, lying & constant pilfering of the public coffers!

Today, in Sweden, Greta Thunberg has been found guilty of obstruction for joining a demo which obstructed the roads. She is to be sentenced late. Swedish law quite clear..you can protest but not obstruct others.

More likely to be funded by our own government 😔

JSO has more funding ties to Labour

@TRexTara

I think you have something there are the smugness.

That impassive unemotional response really gets me.
I've had so many emergencies getting dc to a and e and my god... Inwas already stressed and terrified driving a long way to get help... Had they stopped me with ailing child needing immediate help...

@Platypuslover

I agree. The core of my furze groups may mean well in the original cause but unfortunately like with calais and the activists there... They use people's misery and pain and wedge into someone else's course.

So government 🙄
The majority in there work to the same agenda these days 😬

Well said ignore the frothers.

The outraged reaction to Just Stop Oil’s mild behaviour – and entirely appropriate sense of panic about the planetary catastrophe we are already experiencing – says far more about us than it does about the activists themselves. We’re happy to champion the idea of free speech, and we all agree that Something Must Be Done about humanity’s impending collapse. But we’d really like people to do it somewhere else, some other time, somewhere it doesn’t interfere with our chosen escapism. In that respect, the protesters’ messages are the perfect way of calling us all out.

Not really Dale Vince the founder of Ecotricty has given donations to the Labour Party, Green Party, Just Stop Oil amongst others. There are far more dodgy money and donors to the Tories.

That’s who I’m talking about. It’s the same point.

Still waiting for anyone posting about climate change to explain to me why jso arent terrorists.

The anti climate change machine is working very well on this thread. Awesome work to everyone involved.
We all need to discredit those green lot that are working their ass off to make sure we have clean renewable and sustainable energy sources to secure the future of everyone involved. What an awful bunch of crocked people they are.

Terrorist use violence as there force to get political change
JSO is made from two other groups and Roger Hallum is behind much of what happens and the course is to bring civil disobedience without violence, which can be seen in their inaction when they are attacked with violence. Often the protestors will be literally dragged bother hair and they do not respond.

When was this trip to the famine? And where is the van? its raining presently and could do with driving rather than keep getting wet on my bike
