Jailed Eco-Protesters: Heroes or villains? Feat. Ava Santina & Peter Bleksley | Storm Huntley

Five eco-activists have been jailed for between four and five years after causing terrible disruption on the M25 over four days in November 2022.
The protesters had been found guilty last week of conspiracy to cause a public nuisance, after taking part in conspiring to cause the gridlock.
They were handed the lengthy jail terms by a judge who told them they'd "crossed the line from concerned campaigner to fanatic".

Are you for real serious crime offence no jail plan a protest 5 years mad

Shame we don’t have another planet.

He's flat out wrong - JSO also achieved it's aims. JSO have also brought members over from the public after it's stunts to climate movements in general so he's again wrong again

[@garygee1468]

There is no climate crises we have just had the coldest summer ever

[@ONeill01]

You are flat out wrong. Global heating means UK summers are more than a degree warmer than in the 1970s. Until 2003, the hottest day recorded in the UK stood at 38.5C, but that was broken in 2019, with 38.7C, and again in 2022, with 40.3C, followed by the hottest June on record last year.

They are not long hot summers are a thing of the past people cannot be gaslighted like they used to be look at this one never known it as cold in 60 years

[@panimengropoints9333]

The UK doesn’t pollute as much because we make other countries produce everything for us and do all the polluting. We blame them, but we are the ones forcing them to do it!

Peter seems to think that people should not be inconvenienced in any way, however seems to not understand the severity of the climate crisis and how this will impact everyone.

He was a policeman so he knows everything about everything and therefore all his opinions are correct (because he was a policeman). 🤦‍♀️🤨

[@cugal1613]

The majority of the people in this country agree with just stop oil but probably not the tactics. So his argument is moot. But the gov ignores the people and only listens to donors and think tanks.

[@jimoconnor2594]

How do these idiots heat their homes, do they use candles for light ?

[@michaelcatto8323]

I think you are deluded! This hysteria is taking us to hell in a handcart. As to why so many are on the bandwagon, follow the money. Then question WHY? The climate has changed regularly over the last 60 million years or so. It’s the nature of the universe.
