An equally if somebody in a medical situation can’t get to hospital an dies, charge with man slaughter….
This will bloody stop them.An worse of all I bet they didn’t bloody cycle, walk or swim to the bridge. We all know they came by car.2 -

I also point out that the tunnel approach road - despite being 8 lanes wide (4 each way) is NOT designated as a motorway - it’s actually the A282, which is convenient for the Government (whilst we were in EU) because it’s air quality wasn’t included in EU statistics as not a motorway - it does in fact have the poorest air quality in the UK by a country mile, and certainly would have been top 5 in Europe, maybe in the number 1 spot in fact, if it had been included
So these idiots have hugely increased the bad air quality in the space of a day - it’s nearly 3pm as I write - when rush hour starts in an hour or so, it’s going to be chaos again
One thing that I had never considered, but today made me have a look - go on Streetview and be on the bridge - absolutely no barrier to stop people going up the cables to get to the top of the bridge - amazing - Police first alerted at 3am or similar that there were people going up the cables - at that time, all they need is an accomplice to drive them onto bridge, stop quickly (traffic would be light) and off they go

The annoying thing is that whoever resorts to thumping one of them will almost certainly go to prison while the idiots doing this will not.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIkYm24u8ws

Any news on how the traffic is moving (Dartford or Blackwall way). Was going to the match tonight and think I need to make a decision soon. Is the stream my best option or will I make the match OK?0

Why do they have to close the bridge? Leave it open and ignore the pricks, they'll soon climb down. If they fall, they're going straight in the river.6

I get the point being made but what I actually said was that that I supported the initial actions of both organisations precisely because the shock tactics worked and gained press coverage and widespread support. My point is that they haven't done anything to turn that support into action but rather have continued with the same tactics which has ended up being counterproductive and has lost support.
I have spoken in depth about the climate crisis on the climate change thread and the heatwave threads on here. I do everything i can for this cause including campaigning. All I'm saying is that the continued use of the same tactic is counterproductive.1 -

The guy on the bridge IS a pissed off civilian.3

With the mob who glue thamselves to roads, why not just leave them there, with no access to food or water and toilet facilties, but that is probally against their human rights.

Perhaps someone could obstruct his office building or put a virus in his office PC so he cant work for a few days. He seems to like direct action.

Having seen jumpers hurl themselves off that bridge deliberately it’s not always a guarantee they’ll hit the water.
If you don’t shut the bridge to traffic & one of these eejits falls, it ain’t just going to be one fatality.Who would be happy about that?
I doubt very much either force have a senior officer who would sanction someone to go up and force them down.
So the only option is to wait until they come down and nick them then.
I’d be amazed if they manage 24hrs. Especially if the weather turns.0 -

It’s a massive pain for everyone that will probably achieve nothing. I’m just shocked how little it takes for people to come out as psychopaths. Shoot him! Let him die! Jesus, listen to yourselves.4

We all know there is a climate crisis but this is not the way to endear people and garner support.
if someone in India or China - or even America held tens of thousands of people ransom like this how would this play out?0 -

Vincenzo, you never answered the point raised above re blockage of access to the major emergency hospital caused by the protestor on the bridge, I would be very interested to see how you can explain the difference between your views on people suggesting snipers and the possible death of normal people caused by the action of the protestor?1

Well I would like to personally thank them as I will not be able to go tonight!
(I don't go anyway, but I bet it has saved someone this misery...)0
