    There is a massive backlash building to stuff like this and the trans movement. There's a deeper narrative at play here than some halfwit climbing on a snooker table. Part of that movement makes sense unfortunately this has been hijacked by big players at the top table.
    If you really want to get your point across do what the French do, they know how to have a tear up.

    Unfortunately their latest protests look to have come to nothing as the increase in retirement age seems to be going though.

    Good to tell Spring and the warmer weather is here expect more road blocking now it's warming up a little
    Can't be sitting on roads when it's cold !!
    As for last night's disruption cover them both in orange paint and glue/chain them to the nearest lamp post outside the crucible and leave them there make an example of them !!!
    We are the daftest nation going everyone of them arrested should have their gas, electric and water cut off be refused the sale of petrol/diesel soon make them re think their actions
    We all know this is a small part of what's planned but no one does anything about it
    Kudos to the French protestors they may not get anywhere but at least they aren't just laying down and being walked all over
    Wonder if Just Stop Oil have anything planned for the coronation rest assured they won't get away with that !!!!

    I heard on the radio this morning that earlier plans to chain themselves to goal posts at a Premier League match had been thwarted. Surely just stop oil supporter Dale Vince would allow them to chain themselves to Forest Greens goal posts. That would get them noticed by at least 9 people and a vegan dog

    There seems to be a grown trend of violent behaviour against these Eco Warriors who are blocking the roads, and the only people to blame for this is the police. It is illegal to block the highway and yet they have pandered to these Eco Warriors for such a long time that they feel invincible, so now more and more videos are emerging of bikes pushing threw them, people physically removing them from the street.

    I don't think it will be long before someone is seriously assaulted in London and this all is at the police's door for the turn a blind eye and protect them from being removed. Sitting in the road has always been an offence and there is no good reason that they needed any additional powers when they had them already.

    Just Stop Oil are coming across as a terrorist group at the moment and they are finding very little support in what they do whenever they pull one of their stunts.

    These antics have nothing to do with oil, it is just a vehicle for an anarchistic cult bent on the destruction of the western society, have you seen the look on their zombie faces ? I expect some on here will think that's a bit of an over reaction, well, it ain't ...

    Some idiot went out to ruin a graduation ceremony today for their own end. The Chelsea flower show, Wimbledon, The Ashes, etc, etc. The police being so inactive have allowed it to escalate to this level.

    Someone is going to get seriously hurt as they are seen by large sections of the public as pretty much a terroist outfit at the moment.

    I have seen video from other countries where people are just running over them in the road, I think that was from the Netherlands.

    Looks like the police quoted a law out that once warned the protesters have to be on the pavement, about time too.

    If as @Edin Nowhere@Edin Nowhere says there is a law to prevent this sort of behaviour then why was it not enforced earlier.
