You telling me they can dawn swoop Just Stop Oil and Palestine Action yet the State is utterly powerless against these dudes?
Maybe the State wants to be powerless to stop White Nationalism, maybe that?#FarageRiots #TommyRobinson #StephenYaxleyLennon #Fascists #JustStopOil #PalestineAction #Fascists #WhiteNationalists #Whiteness

#ChrisPackam and #DaleVince right to say
"Complete madness. It is a disgrace and a stain on our country that our courts have been co-opted to do the fossil fuel industry’s dirty work."
about the #WholeTruthFive & many nonviolent protestors who have been jailed in the UK recently"These protesters are shouting ‘fire’ while the world burns. A society that locks them up cannot be called democratic"

Gantry climber, #CressieGethin 22, found guilty
Court & Prison, Press / February 19, 2024
#JustStopOil supporter and gantry climber, Cressie Gethin, has been found guilty. Cressie took action in July 2022, demanding the UK government immediately halts all licensing and consents for new fossil fuel exploration and extraction.
The trial began on the 5th February at Isleworth Crown Court, with Judge Duncan presiding. The jury has found Cressie guilty by a majority of ten to two. Cressie, 22, a music student from Hereford, will be sentenced on the 3rd of May with two others. They face a possible ten year custodial sentence. [2]
During the trial Cressie was prevented from talking about her reasons for taking action and was denied any legal defence by the judge. The court heard a witness testimony from acclaimed naturalist and television presenter, Chris Packham, who commented that those taking action like Cressie “should be commended for sounding a vital alarm”. He added: “I am attending court to support Cressie Gethin because I don’t think she is getting a fair trial. I think, along with the UN, that the UK’s protest laws and sentencing of protesters are unjust, draconian, and in conflict with our basic human rights.”
Cressie climbed a motorway gantry above the M25 on the 20th July 2022, two days after the governments’ net zero strategy was declared unlawful, and one day after the UK recorded its highest ever temperature of 40.3 degrees celsius, a milestone that scientists previously thought was impossible. 61,000 excess deaths were recorded across Europe as a result of the extreme heat that summer, whilst the UK government continued to licence new oil and gas. [5]
Speaking before the action in 2022, Cressie said:
“I am terrified by the extreme heat in the UK this week, knowing that this will only get worse as we continue to extract and burn more and more fossil fuels. This country has the technology and money to begin a just and rapid transition to renewable energy immediately, but our government refuses to do so. I feel it is my duty as a human being to demand change in a way that cannot be ignored.
Thousands of people will die this week as a result of the extreme temperatures we are experiencing in the UK. We are in this situation because of increasing global temperatures caused by the emissions from burning fossil fuels. Against this backdrop, the UK government plans to open new oil and gas fields. I am dumbfounded by their negligence.
I am thinking of the countless people across the country and abroad who are now experiencing illness and death as a result of the climate crisis. People are angry that our government is continuing down the path of destruction, and we will not simply stand by and let this happen.”
A Just Stop Oil spokesperson commented:
“It would be extremely convenient for everyone if the climate crisis could be removed from our lives by the ruling of a Judge. If we could imprison the wildfires, if we could arrest famines, or if we could legislate against the rising sea waters that will leave parts of Britain submerged, that would be a fantastic outcome – but the reality is that we can’t and rapid decarbonisation is the only way of preventing these horrifying outcomes.
However, the judiciary – like the police – is proving to be an effective arm of the oil and gas industry, by silencing and imprisoning members of the public taking nonviolent action against climate collapse. Future generations will be disgusted by rulings such as this.”
As the world passes tipping points that threaten the breakdown of ordered civilization, world leaders, captured by the interests of oil lobbyists and big business, are failing to protect our communities. British citizens are sick of being led by liars and crooks. Until we stop Tory oil, supporters of Just Stop Oil will continue taking proportionate action to demand necessary change.

The right to #protest is under threat in #Britain, undermining a pillar of democracy
By JILL LAWLESS
December 26, 2023LONDON (AP) — "For holding a sign outside a courthouse reminding jurors of their right to acquit defendants, a retiree faces up to two years in prison. For hanging a banner reading '#JustStopOil' off a bridge, an engineer got a three-year prison sentence. Just for walking slowly down the street, scores of people have been arrested.
"They are among hundreds of #environmental activists arrested for peaceful demonstrations in the U.K., where tough new laws restrict the right to protest.
"The Conservative government says the laws prevent extremist activists from hurting the economy and disrupting daily life. Critics say #CivilRights are being eroded without enough scrutiny from lawmakers or protection by the courts. They say the sweeping arrests of peaceful #demonstrators, along with government officials labeling #EnvironmentalActivists #extremists, mark a worrying departure for a liberal democracy.
"'Legitimate protest is part of what makes any country a safe and civilized place to live',' said Jonathon Porritt, an #ecologist and former director of #FriendsOfTheEarth, who joined a vigil outside London’s Central Criminal Court to protest the treatment of demonstrators.
"'The government has made its intent very clear, which is basically to suppress what is legitimate, lawful protest and to use every conceivable mechanism at their disposal to do that.'"

Just Stop Oil activist jailed for six months for taking part in slow march
Stephen Gingell, 57, thought to be first to receive prison sentence under new Public Order Act
by Damien Gayle
Fri 15 Dec 2023"A #ClimateActivist has been jailed for six months after pleading guilty to taking part in a peaceful #SlowMarch protest on a London road.
"The sentence handed to Stephen Gingell, 57, is thought to be the first jailing under a new law that critics say makes anyone walking in a road liable for prosecution for 'interference with key national infrastructure'.
"#Section7 of the #PublicOrderAct2023 bans any act that prevents newspaper printing presses, power plants, #oil and #gas extraction or distribution sites, #harbours, #airports, #railways or #roads 'from being used or operated to any extent', with a potential penalty of 12 months in jail.
"Gingell, a father of three from #Manchester, was one of about 40 supporters of #JustStopOil who spent about 30 minutes marching on #HollowayRoad in north #London at about 4pm on 12 November, the climate campaign group said.
"He pleaded guilty to breach of section 7 at a hearing that same month at Wimbledon magistrates court. On Thursday, his case was transferred to Manchester magistrates court, where he was sentenced to six months.
"Just Stop Oil has been campaigning since 2022 for the UK government to stop all new fossil fuel production. The campaign’s 'guerrilla tactics' were cited by the Home Office when it introduced the Public Order Act’s tough new #AntiProtest measures to parliament.
"Police began using section 7 to tackle Just Stop Oil’s protests at the end of October, arresting 60 people taking part in a march in Parliament Square. In a campaign of slow march protests carried out by the group between then and 4 December, 470 of the group’s supporters were arrested 630 times, with about half of those arrests under the new law.
"A spokesperson for the campaign said: 'Section 7 of the Public Order Act 2023, a law drafted by the #FossilFuel lobby, was introduced in April by Priti Patel, and covers ‘interference with the use or operation of key national infrastructure’. It seems this government has now made walking down the road, walking on the public highway an illegal act that is worthy of imprisonment.
"'How many fathers will be imprisoned before those planning to kill us are stopped? New oil and gas will see millions upon millions lose their homes, livelihoods and lives. Protected by the government, by failed politicians, by the police, those committing genocide continue to walk free, those protesting the killings are banged up. Whose side are you on?'
"The human rights organisation Liberty criticised Gingell’s sentencing. Katy Watts, a lawyer at Liberty, said: “It is shocking to see such harsh sentences handed down to protesters. This is yet another unnecessary and draconian law introduced by a government that is hell-bent on discouraging people from standing up for what they believe in. It is a clear attempt to silence people and for the government to hide from all accountability.
"Protest is a fundamental right, not a gift from the state. Government should be protecting our right to protest, not criminalising it.'"

1/ Ich war heute bei der #GeoBerlin2023. Als die Geolog*innen bei den Vorträgen waren, war in der Halle nicht viel los und ich habe mich lange mit einer Mitarbeiterin von #WintershallDEA unterhalten. Sie betreute einen Stand mit der Universität #Bergen. Es ging um #CSS. Das war alles höchst interessant. Dort war ein Modell zu sehen, in das CO2 eingeführt wurde (orange im Bild, blau ist Wasser und dunkel und körnig Gesteinsschichten). Sie hat mir erzählt, dass das CO2 dann in Wasser gelöst wird. In diesen porösen Steinschichten.
Man kann entweder neue Lagerorte finden und benutzen oder man benutzt Orte, in denen früher Gas oder Öl war. Es wird wohl schon seit dreißig Jahren CO2 in Öl- und Gasfelder eingepumpt, damit dann auf der anderen Seite, wo man Öl und Gas fördern will, der Druck hoch ist. Das ist also ein Kreislauf. Blöd daran ist nur, dass das CO2 in der Atmosphäre ja weniger werden muss, und wenn man das schon immer gemacht hat, dann nützt das ja nichts, wenn man CO2 loswerden will.
Ich habe nach den Kapazitäten gefragt und ob es prinzipiell unbeschränkte Lagermöglichkeiten gäbe oder ob es da zu Problemen kommen könne. Sie meinte, in der Nordsee gäbe es #Kapazitäten und auch onshore. Ein Mann, der bei uns stand (weiß nicht ob von DEA oder von einer Uni), meinte, dass UK eine Kapazität von 80 Mrd. Tonnen hätte. Er klang ganz begeistert, aber ich war nicht beeindruckt, denn wir pusten ja im Jahr so 60 GT raus, d.h. wir müllen als Welt alle potentiellen Lagerstätten in UK und Küstengebieten in ein bisschen mehr als einem Jahr zu.
Ansonsten kannte sie sich gut aus mit den Szenarien im IPCC-Report und dass das CCS schon in den meisten Szenarien eingepreist ist.
Sie hat auch gesagt, dass wir reduzieren müssen. So viel ist klar. Und nur das verpressen, was nicht ohne CO2-Ausstoß funktioniert, der Rest muss anders gelöst werden.
Wir haben über die DEA und Öl gesprochen, das die ja sicher weiterfördern will, und ob man das denn brauche. Sie hat darauf hingewiesen, dass das nicht so einfach sei, denn alles um uns herum ist schließlich aus Erdöl. Meine Turnschuhe, mein Rucksack, die Tische usw.
Zum Fracking meinte sie, es gäbe zwei Arten und die schlechte sei ja in Deutschland verboten. Wir waren uns einig, dass das, was wir importieren, zum Teil gefrackt ist.
Ich habe sie nach Argentinien gefragt und ob sie #EstebanServat kenne, der in Argentinien wegen Aktivismus gegen Fracking verfolgt wurde. Kannte sie nicht.
Ich habe noch mal nach dem neuen Öl gefragt und ob man es nicht so machen könnte, wie #JustStopOil es vorschlägt: Einfach keine neuen Vorkommen mehr erschließen. Die alten kann man ja noch eine Weile ausbeuten. Dann regelt das mit den Kunststoffen der Markt. In der Restlaufzeit werden dann schon Ersatzstoffe für Turnschuhe gefunden werden.
PS: Ich habe viele Reden von Esteban Servat gehört und ihn oft fotografiert:

When is a vandal not a vandal? When they’re attacking #Ulez cameras, say desperate #Tory MPs
Investigating protest and #CriminalDamage is apparently now a waste of police time. Funny that Conservatives didn’t say that about #JustStopOil #protests

Klimaatontwrichting. Honderden miljoenen klimaatvluchtelingen in gebieden die te heet en droog zijn. Of gebieden verdwijnen in de oceaan (ook deels Nederland). Het IPCC rapport zegt: dump de olie-industrie en bio-industrie om een existentiële crisis te voorkomen.
