Our right to Protest Peacefully is not being attacked or being removed those who wish to hold a Protest will still be able to as usual, the Police actually help organise Protest. What has never been allowed is an unlawful Protest and people involved committing Offences. In today's media the Met Police have stated what they are doing and why The Metropolitan Police said their "significant" operation had resulted at least three people being detained, who the force had "strong reason to believe are intent on causing reckless and serious disruption to the public". In a statement released late on Sunday, Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said: "Acting on intelligence, this operation is fast-moving and will continue this evening and overnight with multiple arrest enquiries underway. "So far this evening we have made three arrests linked to this activity. "This is an evolving situation, and we suspect the intent of these individuals is disproportionate to any legitimate right to protest and clearly crosses the line into unlawful activity. "Our investigation has strong reason to suspect the Just Stop Oil group intend to disrupt major motorway road networks which would risk serious harm to the public, with reckless action to obstruct the public on a large scale." All protests cause some disruption that is what makes them effective. If this carries on will they arrest union leaders for causing disruption when they think about strike action? You are either very naive and not living in the real world or a very poor wind-up merchant. Of course, Protests causes some disruption, as do large sporting events, Mayday March, LGBT Parade etc If a group people want to hold a Protest March in any City or Town all they have to do is contact the Police beforehand who will help organise it, what is the Protest about? how many people do you expect to attend? where do you want to march to and from where, The Police will then arrange the route set a time for it to start and time to finish, that was disruption is kept to a minimum, basically have your say rant away then bugger off home, most end in the pub. The Oil Protesters are not peaceful they intend to commit offences they intend to cause as much disruption as they can, the Police do not know where in most cases these little groups of protesters will start their protests all roughly at the same time in several different locations. If you can't work that out, then that is your problem |

I suspect some of the older ones who were out wearing the same duffel coats in the 60s and 70s trying to unilaterally ban nuclear weapons in the West . Now that is a lie, the CND was a global campaign happening all over the world. Maybe it was different in my part of the world. In my experience the CND was a small bunch of middle class, lefty academics and/or vegetarians protesting about most everything and who were usually ignored because, to be honest, they were a bit pongy. The 70s were more fun.Kafkans, Camberwell Carrots and Joan Baez |

And as for the usuals who bash the DM note there are no comments permited on this article.
Is this FINALLY the end of the road for Just Stop Oil? Eco-group mastermind Roger Hallam is arrested by cops 'ahead of planned M25 demo today' - as National Highways gets court order barring zealots from disrupting Britain's busiest motorway The founder of Just Stop Oil, Roger Hallam, 56, was arrested last night He was detained on suspicion of conspiracy to commit public nuisance National Highways secured injunction to prevent protesters disrupting M25
Yes good news, he's a throw away the key case. But as I've said before, the one we need extradited and banged up in the UK is Aileen Getty that bankrolls these fundamentally anti democratic scum |

This never used to be the case, people were free to protest anywhere and anyhow they wanted and if they committed crimes whilst doing so faced arrest and prosecution. If you can't work that out, then that is your problem. |

Protest within accepted norms yes Intimidating the population because you pathetically fail to get support at the ballot box is antidemocratic and criminal. Got that? Or maybe we need to start a Just Stop Just Stop Oil protest that barricades you in your home until you get it. |

It's good to see the Met getting their finger out at last, they've pussyfooted around these arseholes for long enough.
Although I suspect it's been prompted by the public taking matters into their own hands.

True, and putting Roger Hallam into the big, bad, old barry place won't solve any problems because he has been there before and probably likes the place. He is clearly a nutter and apart from putting him in a cage and charging folk a shilling a time to poke him with a stick, there is no much else that can be done |

They're not a political party because they know they would get no support. Even the Greens who somewhat share their end goal but not their methods get less than 1 in 30 voters to support them. As I said they are pathetic failures using democracy so decide they have some sort of right to intimidate with hostile action those that don't agree with them. Clearly you think such intimidation is a wonderful way to live. Be careful what you wish for. |
