  9. theconversation.com/if-british. They DO have a point, especially over the excessive influence of #lobbyists & #special #interest #groups! The one the author of this article doesn't mention - & SHOULD have done - is the #fossilfuel #lobby, @ConversationUK. The directors & CEOs of #fossilfuels #companies act with #impunity, no matter what harm they do to the #climate, but anyone who #protests about what they do? They end up in jail!

    But the movement in India gets barely any notice in the media and absolutely no mention by our hypocrite leaders.

  17. The only effect of #farmers #protests (both here in UK and across North Sea in NL) is that I now view any #tractor on #A12 and #A14 highway with suspicion, even when its very likely they are doing legitimate agricultural work.

    Previous to the protests I just though of them as normal vehicles to see on the roads in a semi rural area..
