News today that two weeks of 'intense protests' are planned over Christmas. Not entirely sure what the difference between a normal protest and intense one is? I guess the frequency. The Just Stop Oil spokesperson has said that they are going to be as obstructive as possible, walking as slow as they can etc. Meanwhile Sgt Chubsley from the Met, has confirmed that the Met are well prepared for the chaos. Chubsley, who previously failed in petitioning McDonald's to reintroduce Super Size menu options, said of the planned protests "Listen, we're prepared. At the Met, we're always prepared. Over the summer we have been practicing and preparing for this. We have learnt the cancan, the Macarena, even some dubstep and grime. We're prepared". After Sgt Chubsley was reminded that this wasn't an upcoming pride march, rather protests bordering on civil unrest, he qualified his statement by explaining in great lengths, even including a protractor to demonstrate his working, that the police are bound by red tape and are usually unable to deal with protesters, dangerous criminals and terrorists. Chubsley quipped "too much paperwork and not enough Sausage and Egg McMuffins". Laughing, dancing and joking with protesters who are starting to genuinely harm people. Top police work guys. At what point do we start considering that the police are enemies of the people? |

Because we live in a society that certain sections of believe in absolutes - “you are either with me or against me” those people are also the ones that shout the loudest and always seem to get themselves heard. Critical thinking and reasonable debate is a failing right of our society, suppressed and combated against at almost every turn. At the same time the authorities and governments are drifting further from the population than ever and not upholding even the most basic of control expected from most people. This lands is in a world where people like this can lie on a road or slash priceless art without consequence, but speaking out against it individually gets you lambasted or even banned from your social media. That’s how they have almost free reign to do whatever they want. |

If you're criticising the police for their actions that's fine but it's still assault......... |

I'm criticising the police for not moving the protesters out of the way, the protesters for spoiling peoples days and giving full backing to the guy arrested. The guy who tumbles to the ground needs an oscar |

I don’t agree that stopping traffic is a peaceful protest. To me anyone who encroaches the public highways and attempts to bring traffic to a standstill should be cuffed and taken to the station.
I commend that bloke for dealing with them using minimal violence and restraint, it won’t be long before this lot are getting chinned and deservedly so. Although the perpetrator would equally deserve to be arrested and charged with assault.

Would the police have stood by if it were football fans doing it ? The protesters were protesting peacefully and lawfully (in their opinion), if the police believed that it was unlawful they should have intervened and used reasonable force to remove them. All you're doing is highlighting examples of why I've criticised them regularly in the past, it's the inconsistency and muddled decision making from those giving the orders. They appear to make it up as they go along........ |

I feel for the bloke, these drivers are under intense pressure, working to stringent deadlines and now he's lost his job. Furthermore, this is a perfect example of why these protesters, protesting ad hoc, has to be stopped. Are we going to wait until somebody is seriously injured (or even worse) before something is done about it? |
