๐ข Fossil fuels are pushing British families into poverty and causing famines around the world today. 33 million have been displaced due to the floods in Pakistan โ this is just the start of it.
๐ฅ We stand to lose everything weโve got, so weโre giving it everything weโve got.
๐ Meet at 11am outside Downing St every day of October to Occupy Westminster.
๐จ BREAKING: LORA JOHNSON THROWS PAINT ON MET POLICE HQ ๐จ
โ๏ธ New oil and gas will lead to crop failure, food shortages and the collapse of law and order. Human civilisation as we know it is on the verge of collapse.
โ There are currently 5 Just Stop Oil supporters in prison on remand or serving sentences for taking action to demand that the Government halts new oil and gas licences. They are Simon Milner-Edwards, Margaret Reid, Michelle Charlesworth, Joshua Smith and Louis McKechnie.
โ Also in prison are Madelaine Budd for the โCaptain Tomโ action, Scott Breen for taking action against the Southampton to Heathrow pipeline, and Elliott Cuciurean for taking action against HS2.
๐ฅซ JUST STOP OIL SUPPORTERS CHOOSE LIFE OVER ART ๐ฅซ
๐จ Human creativity and brilliance is on show in this gallery, yet our heritage is being destroyed by our Governmentโs failure to act on the climate and cost of living crisis.
๐ฆบ This is the moment to come together and resist. We are not prepared to watch while the Government plans for countless millions to die and destroys everything we love.
๐ ONLOOKER DETAINED FOR VERBALLY SUPPORTING JUST STOP OIL ๐
โ An unassuming member of the public was detained, stopped & searched by the Metropolitan Police for saying โwell doneโ to supporters of Just Stop Oil blocking a road.
๐ If the Government doesnโt end new oil & gas, soon enough, weโll be fighting for bread in the bakery aisle of Morrisons.
๐ฎ British police are complicit in the greatest crisis humanity has ever faced โ refuse to arrest Just Stop Oil supporters in peaceful Civil Resistance now.
๐ข It makes no sense to anyone at all that the Government is pushing through new fossil fuel licenses, when 77% of the UK public want the Government to do more to tackle the climate crisis.
๐โโ๏ธ Earlier today, two supporters of Just Stop Oil scaled a van each outside Downing Street, demanding that the Government ends new oil and gas.
๐ข Ordinary people are stepping up into Civil Resistance because it is our only chance at preventing the biggest crisis humanity has ever faced. Oil is causing the climate and cost of living crisis, making us poorer and killing us now. New oil and gas is an act of genocide.
๐ We need an emergency response from the Government to get us off oil and gas. This is the moment to come together and resist โ we will not stand by and watch while millions go hungry and everything we love is lost. We will stop when the Government agrees to end new oil and gas.
๐ค Earlier today, supporters of Just Stop Oil and Insulate Britain came together to demand an emergency response to the climate and cost of living crisis by blocking roads outside Downing Street and the Houses of Parliament
๐ Democracy is a precious & essential part of our society. Our leadership must always be accountable to the people, & if they are not, we risk oppression. We are, without a doubt, lucky to live in a liberal representational democracy, & when the time comes to vote, we should.
So why then, are people acting politically, with Civil Resistance, outside of this mechanism?
