‘There is minimal impact to the wider community at this time.’

The latest protests come after eco-zealots from the group glued themselves to the top of a fuel tanker lorry on one of London’s busiest roundabouts yesterday.

The protest happened in Chiswick, west London, just after 8am ahead of a busy weekend for travel for Easter.

It comes after one firm, Valero Energy, was granted an injunction against a number of environmental groups and ‘persons unknown’ earlier this week following recent protests at the Kingsbury terminal.

It bans anyone from damaging any part of the land at each of the firm’s sites, from ‘affixing themselves to any other person or object’ on the land or parts of access roads, and from building any structure. Valero also owns and operates sites in Manchester, Cardiff, Plymouth and Avonmouth.

I took a geography class where they said it takes two square miles to support one person in a subsitence agriculture culture, pretty much what you had in the stone age.

Taking away oil means putting us back in that situation and there’s not enough good land to support the billions alive today.

That means if eco nazis achieve their goals, billions will die.

These folks are a threat and should be treated accordingly.

Just Stop Oil activist

Can we take these people, but them on the green movement payroll and make them live in a green new start from scratch community in a desert somewhere. No oil. Just wind and sun. Water? Well, my son, you figure that out since you're so smart. Just no truckin it in using fossil fuels.

Oh, and no nuclear because if you guys hadn't shut down nuclear we wouldn't be where we are today.

Their are much more malevolent forces at work here. The satanic globalists have replaced the fervor that this young man would presumably otherwise yield in seeking to save souls for Christ, as a young man born into Western Christendom, into a fervor for the false religion of environmentalism. It’s by design folks. What good is to gain the entire world (which is what environmentalists believe in) if you lose your soul? The satanic globohomos do not want people coming to Christ. They want young men like this to spend their energy on false religions. Environmentalism is satanic - the worship of the creation instead of the creator.

Serious question: How did the protestors get to the oil refineries?

Exactly. Give ‘em a loincloth and a pointy stick and set ‘em loose in North Dakota. In January. Have at it, show us how it’s done.

They have no idea what they are advocating for.

You have to have at least a grudging admiration (in a twisted sense) for a propaganda campaign that can indoctrinate so many people to complete nonsense & absurdity. “Let’s get rid of everything that makes my very existence possible”.

pointy stick

No killing animals to eat either because then we need animal husbandry and that gives us cow farts and greenhouse gases and we know where that goes.

Oh, and good luck with food. You can't use petroleum derived fertilizer and you can't burn your fields to clear them either for reasons you idiots understand a whole lot better than we do. No need to explain it to us. We get it. Just don't do it.

These idiots are so full of themselves.

They failed at fighting poverty.

They failed at fighting homelessness.

They failed at lowering crime.

Now these morons want to fight climate change.

The climate changes several times a year, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter.... They’re called SEASONS.

It’s a proven fact that the earth was a lot warmer than it is now. There is a reason why Greenland is called Greenland. The barren artic tundra that is present day Greenland was actually covered with forests 2.5 million years ago.

Nice!!!! Hope he face-stomped the little punk while had him on the ground.

That’s what it will take to stop these asshats. The one thing they understand: Force.

Greenland must be a great place to take a vacation in the summers. The photos of its fjords look beautiful. Greenland looks 100x greener with trees and vegetation, than Iceland. Many of it people are mixed blood Danish and Eskimo.

So if I had my choice to visit, it would be Greenland over Iceland. Lots of super fresh fish to eat too! Crabs too maybe.

Just another bunch of spoiled, privileged white punks, who have never had to worry about money, food, or housing, protesting against the world. Full of insecurities, they try so hard to make themselves feel like they have a purpose, but they are just plain stupid.

Accelerate, then pump the brakes.
