Are these people fair weather protestors? Never see them when it's chucking it down. Maybe the glue won't stick?0

is that necessary? Fattism alive and well on Charlton Life.addick1956 said:
Yes he did. 8 million squids wasted because he was prohibited from using them. Being a fat useless chump he did his usual trick of acting on an idea because it was his. He as usual did no research.1StevieG said:
Didn’t Boris buy a few water cannon when he was Mayor?Swisdom said:is it is it time for water cannons yet? Tasers maybe?
There needs to be some deterrent before someone gets seriously pissed off and does something they’ll regret6 -

Has anybody thought of treacle and a wasps nest or a beehive? The authorities won’t prosecute hymenoptera going about their business.1

The sad thing is that most of us support them (in varying degrees), in their views but these methods are not doing them, us or their cause one damn bit of good.🙁10

They deserve more than a slap.blackpool72 said:I don't normally condone violence but some of there deserve a slap.0 -
Believe Boris purchased water cannons when he was Mayor of London but dear old Theresa May got rid of them when she was Home Secretary, one of the many stupid things that useless woman did! She is almost what Angela Raynor is to the Tories she is to Labour. Reason Corbyn got so many votes.3

You're suggesting water cannon should be used on these protesters? And you think it was a good thing that Johnson had bought these originally?Silverdreammachine said:Believe Boris purchased water cannons when he was Mayor of London but dear old Theresa May got rid of them when she was Home Secretary, one of the many stupid things that useless woman did!

Reality check just for you @Silverdreammachine

Just seen Liam Norton being interviewed. The man is so monstrously thick, he's gotta be a patsy of some kind0

Worth ruling out if there are a bunch of naive people being brainwashed by a person planted by the authorities in order to distract from other things.
It may be that Liam Norton is a sincere eco warrior rather than a callous manipulator.
An investigation might establish what kind of bona fides he has, I certainly wouldn’t allow myself to be ‘led’ by him unless I knew a lot about him.
Deliberate or not these protests are a distraction from other current issues.
They are foolish in the extreme, and if there is a reaction…we’ll it’s hard to stop people being people I suppose.1 -
Strange the police say they attended within 5 minutes, no sign of them in that video. One of the protestors is married to one of the TFL chiefs who job it is to keep london traffic moving, his salary is reported to be £170K. He is leaving the job at the end of October.

I have decided that if I am in a car like that lady that I am going to get it & ask then to move. I will tell them, to camera, that I will be getting into my car & will be moving slowly forwards. If they get in my way then that is down to them. Fair warning.SantaClaus said:0 -

Tfl only have between 500 to 600 members of staff on 6 figure salaries. No wonder they are broke.golfaddick said:

One of the protestors is married to one of the TFL chiefs who job it is to keep london traffic moving, his salary is reported to be £170K. He is leaving the job at the end of October.An Insulate Britain protester who is married to a Transport for London boss has said she is “just a human being doing her best”.
Cathy Eastburn, who has previously vowed to “unleash hell” on drivers and has been arrested on numerous occasions for blocking the M25, lives with Benedict Plowden, a TfL director, in south London and has allowed a fellow activist to stay at their home, according to reports. Speaking from the gates of their private estate, Eastburn, 54, told the Daily Mail: “As you already know, my husband works for TfL. I’m working as an activist, if you want to call it that. But I’m just a human doing my best.”
Now it has been revealed she is the wife of Benedict Plowden, 58, who earns a £170,000-a-year salary with the transport body.
He is in charge of the capital’s Covid Restart and Recovery Scheme, tasked with ‘getting London moving after the pandemic’.
Mr Plowden and Ms Eastburn share a £1.5million home in south London. It is believed to have been used by Extinction Rebellion veteran David McKenny, 38.
