"what do they do for a living besides glueing themselves to the fuckin road.." An activist sacrifices his life for the cause . Ruins his life , his job , goes to jail as a political prisoner , gets in serious trouble , court fines , and fuck knows what . misses his family . All for the cause . To fight the abuse of politicians to make a better place for all of us . So a few hours or even lose the hand is nothing comparing to what is happening in the big picture . So those clowns you see out there . They gonna get the shit for trying make a better world for you . | |||

" Tom's Law wish somebody would glue a few police officers to walls " If they did,the police would release a statement claiming 250 brave boys in blue had been battered to death, the press would repeat it unquestioningly, and Braverman would call for the return of the death penalty for those who kill police officers. Worried about being outflanked on law and order, Starmer would rush out a statement saying yhat the Tories were too soft on crime, and that under Labour, 'looking at a policemen funny' would attract a minimum sentence of hanging, drawing,and quartering. Here and elsewhere, punters would be frothing at the mouth, calling for vigilante action against anyone with a nose-stud or blue hair. Meanwhile, a small leftist podcast would put in an FOI on what rapidly became known as 'The Copper Slaughter', asking for the actual breakdown of police affected.

My daughter will inherit a world that’s already looking much harsher & much depleted. I want to do the most I can to halt that & salute those trying to raise awareness. Protests are a bugger. That’s the point. I’m sure Dr King’s marches blocked the roads for many commuters, but history doesn’t really regard those as the most important perspectives. | |||

They’re asking for a stop to all NEW licensing and production of oil? And haven’t the government committed to more oil for the next decade at least? Which takes us to 2030 and at this rate warming will be at like 2degreesC? | |||

"I don’t think people realise how close we are to irreversible damage. There isn’t an endless amount of time. I know it’s frustrating to hear & much easier to just carry on, but the science is pretty fucking solid. Absolutely but to make a significant difference China, USA, India and Russia would be a starting point. Then a few more countries on the list before we get to the UK. Doesn't mean we shouldn't be doing anything, which we are, and everyone wants everything now but as a previous poster said things take time. The science says that we have to reduce emissions by 2030. The UK Government haven’t taken the steps to make that happen. They’re, committed to expanding production of oil and gas which, imo, and in the opinion of some experts, is not sensible. We have a cheek to call out any other country if our own government shows a lack of commitment to the cause too. This is the responsibility imo of global powers and that includes us. " The UK is at least making an effort and I agree we should do more. I was pointing out that if we don't start with the large contributors then anything we do will be in vain....shouldn't stop us doing our bit though. | |||

"I was in London a couple of Saturdays ago and they glued themselves to the A501 outside Madame Tussaud’s. There were huge delays and the police diverted all vehicles pushing them in to the ULEZ and congestion charge area which we had to pay. So why drive that day? Well there was a train strike and I needed to attend hospital for a scan despite it being Saturday. My point is every car in both directions had to pay this fee. For me this should be revoked " Every day I feel better about my little folding electric bike. Hugs to everyone else. I know two people who used to ride a bicycle who lived until age 98. I'd do anything to ward off inevitable dementia. | |||

"Emily Dickinson threw herself in front of the king’s horse to highlight women’s suffrage. It has become one of the most memorable and impactful acts of protest ever. She was killed outright and I suppose a lot of people would consider her stupid…. I doubt many people would consider what she was fighting for as stupid! Just saying " If the same rules and standards applied now, as they did for Emily Dickinson, how many of these protestors would still protest? When Emily Dickinson made her protest, it would have been in full knowledge that it would probably end in injury, death or imprisonment. The protestors now know that society will protect them at the cost of others rights and liberties. There's no doubt that the cause being highlighted is valid, but I'd question how likely blocking a motorway or gridlocking London is to catalyse change. Both things that are actually causing more harm to the environment than no protest! | |||

And I hope people start to care about the climate crisis enough to put pressure on government to do more. Whether through protest or other. Whilst I somewhat agree I hope it’s not a member of your family that needs an ambulance or a fire engine as nothing is allowed past and every road around the area becomes gridlocked I'm glad that people are dragging them off the roads. It's ridiculous. They don't give a crap about whatever they are allegedly protesting against. They just want to cause issues. Do you support protestors being assaulted for exercising their rights? I support their right to protest. Absolutely. I don't support them breaking the law to do it. Obstructing the highway, pouring a bucket of shit over a statue, climbing on top of tube trains are offences. I don't support people being assaulted. Winston Everyone loves the police so much, shouldn’t we be calling them to deal with it rather than taking the law into our own hands? I know that you have said you don’t support them being assaulted I’m just venting here because they are being assaulted and people are lauding it I totally agree, why the feck the police aren't dealing with it is beyond me. And as for the nitwits going round London slashing the tyres on Range Rovers (and the like), or our latest Herbert's, pouring milk over shop floors, do not get me started. Freedom fighters they are...... Winston Lmao. They might not seem it but I think it’s just that they’re not all that creative in their thinking tbh .

"I cannot believe people are really in this thread wishing these guys dead when all they want is for government and big corporations to take better care of our already dying planet. I’m so worried for my daughters generation and her children, if she decides to have them. It really stinks of “I won’t be around so I don’t care in here” - that’s all that’s wrong with society today. Every one is just out for themselves. No one cares about the damage or the bigger picture. Future generations to come. It’s just heartbreaking really. But I’m not surprised. The people of this country have always been a selfish bunch only out for themselves. The weather has never been this extreme. So when people are freezing to death in their homes or boiling to death. Remember how violently you spoke about the only people actually getting off their backsides and trying to force governments into action. Power to the people, always. " Always | |||

I’m yet to read of many people that have died because of this either but if someone was to it would undoubtedly be sad but imo it still wouldn’t make their action less important or their methods completely wrong. As someone said above, I’m sure the march on Washington or many other forms of direct action have has similar consequences but ultimately we’re trying to make the world a safer place for future generations. | |||

" You can’t be seriously asking why British climate activists are calling out the British government and not someone else’s? What is the point of our government if not to protect us? I said already, many of these activists have said they’re not asking for things to be turned off tomorrow but they’re asking for us to stop expansion of oil and gas production. The BRITISH government announced expansion like last month. For a country so small, it’s also extremely alarming how much we emit already. Other countries that emit similar amounts are much bigger I am pretty sure. Gluing yourself to the road forces people to listen. It’s also direct action. It’s disruptive. Like I said, over 50 million people watched the soup video. Sounds like they’re doing more than a peaceful march that literally nobody cares about would achieve. | |||

Definitely non in our solar system is capable of supporting life..... Its only the lunatics spouting "ooh we are all going to die in 10 minutes if we don't stop co2" At 150ppm plants die. (no food no oxygen we die too) Co2 is a fertiliser more co2 =greener planet. Look back at the records of atmospheric co2 and there is NO coralation between co2 and temperature - the sun and water vapour drives temperature.
