    Wonder how they got there? Bike, on foot, upon horseback, or floating in on a balloon held aloft by their own hot air and lentil scented wind?

    Probably drive there in their 30 year old, 12 mpg, converted horse box, with log burner installed.

    Why?

    These people drive cars, possibly smoke, and take their families on a nice polluting plane on holiday. Sad people who need to get a life. I've been saying it for years, This Country's Fkd.

    We've become far too soft, far too sympathetic, and far too lenient towards people who are wrongdoing, and being awkward for the sake of attention and bandwagon jumping. Our laws give them an excuse for bad behaviour.

    It will only get worse until something snaps.

    Surely the idea with movements of this nature is to garner public support.

    Now I hate them even more than I did previously. 

    Whoever’s responsible for their MO needs to have a word with themselves.

    Pricks.

    And here’s me thinking they were over enthusiastic Dutch fans spraying orange everywhere.

    One thing I never understood is why they built it so close to the road.🤭

    It’s been said that it was orange coloured flour used for their protest which will easily wash off through rain and cause no damage to the stones (it was not paint). Bonus could be an orange sponge cake resulting from a protest against oil. Just need to all have a nice cup of tea and relax. 

    From the article:

    "English Heritage said the orange paint had been removed using a "specialist handheld blower".

    It told the BBC that if rain had come into contact with the powder, damage could have been significant.

    The stones are covered in more than fifty different lichens, some of them rare. This meant brushing or washing the paint off was not possible."

    Just said on the radio that only 4 people of 3000 arrested have been jailed. Astonishing when you calculate the total cost of their disruption.

    I have every sympathy with their cause. But how does vandalising the past improve the prospects for the future? To paraphrase Macronate, if they want to garner public support they have a funny idea of how to go about it.
