Are we in favour, or against peaceful protest?

No doubt they’d be heroes for Quackie if they were ill informed students from the University of Twitter moaning about a life saving medical procedure ?
 
If the protest is something you don't agree with, the coppers should stick the boot in...

On the other hand...

It’s interesting to see all the ‘freedom’ loving old men frothing at the mouth and supporting Patel legislating for prison sentences for peaceful protest when the cause is one they don’t support.

Thing folks need to get is these people believe totally in their cause . They won’t stop doing this whatever the deterrent .
Got to admire their courage if not their tactics.
 
Look at snitch and snatch creating scenarios that no one has said to bitch about.

Fucking idiots.

Quite an interesting moral and political topic for debate on a political message board , but guess it’s a bit beyond some who are only here to abuse others .
 
There are laws in this country designed to regulate and control the right to protest.

Break the rules and you should get nicked if you do not do as you are told and stop whatever offence you are committing.

Generally people are not against protests, what they are against is the arbitrary way that the authorities deal with them. One law for some, a rather different law for others, it is political and deliberately divisive. Government policy in other words.
 
If I run over the daft fuckers and I say I'm protesting about people sitting the road is that acceptable?
 
Preventing people going about their lawful business is never right

They should publish these peoples addresses so that we can go round and super glue their door locks
 
I agree with you. Not the publishing addresses, or glue part...
But what sort of protest doesn't prevent people going about their lawful business?
 
Any protest that is planned and organised to allow the rest of us to make contingency plans and doesn't break the law such as pedestrians going onto motorways. Or these loonies could simply stand at the side of the road and wave their appendages to their hearts content whilst we drive by making wanker gestures at them
 
Apparently it’s up to the PM now what is a “legitimate”protest.
Whether you support insulate Britain or not this is a very worrying development on the road to authoritarianism.
 
Am I right in thinking that they believe they are trying to save the world from an imminent climate disaster and that they have a moral duty to create as much disorder as possible to raise awareness and effect policy changes ? Why therefore should anyone be surprised by any measures they are prepared to take?

I am not surprised at all by their behaviour. It is a time honoured principal in the UK that some people will defy the law in full knowledge of the consequences that their actions will bring. It is an important part of 'direct action'.

Two things trouble me, firstly, at what point does such direct action become really unacceptable and dangerous. Clearly blocking access to hospital A&E departments is too much as is deliberately violent and intimidatory action. But just where is the line?

The second is the way that the police, presumably under instruction, choose how to respond to different 'causes', contrast the deference shown to Antifa and BLM, culminating in the disgraceful act of 'taking the knee', to the brutal and intimidatory response to, say, anti-lockdown protesters. The differences are striking and disturbing.
 
They'd argue that we have reached the point where inaction has become really unacceptable and dangerous

If that was the slightest bit true i’d agree with you .

Indeed and therein lies the rub.

I could argue that much of the climate agenda is fake, a con if you prefer. The concentration on CO2 levels and 'green' energy could easily cause deaths this winter due to shortages and escalating prices, I consider that to be unacceptable and dangerous.
 
Good job the UK hasn't pissed off its main energy suppliers then.
 
It's another punishment beating for the ordinary people of this country for daring to oppose the government. It has been going on for 20+ years in various guises.

The UK is sitting on boundless energy but will most likely go short this winter, we are on the edge and it could be catastrophic.
