🚨 BREAKING: M25 BLOCKED AGAIN

🦺 From 6:30am, around 10 supporters of Just Stop Oil climbed onto overhead gantries of the M25 in multiple locations, causing police to halt traffic.

#COP27 #A22Network #M25
Sam Holland, 20, said of the government's plan to license more oil:

💬 "I'm getting screwed over. I'm twenty years old. What does my future look like when I'm forty? It looks like there's no food on the shelves. It looks like people fighting in the streets."

#Climate
Isabel Rock, 41, has a message for her nephew.

“I’m doing this for my baby nephew and his unborn sister. I want them to have a chance at a future. The government is responsible for criminal inaction on the climate crisis. They should be in prison."

#ClimateChange #ClimateAction
💬 Daniel, a joiner from Manchester said:

"We're demanding a simple step in the right direction – to end all new fossil fuel projects."

STATEMENT: Just Stop Oil halts M25 actions

From today, Just Stop Oil will halt its campaign of civil resistance on the M25. We are giving time to those in Government who are in touch with reality to consider their responsibilities to this country at this time. (1/6)

#M25 #COP27
We ask that the Prime Minister consider his statement at COP27, where he spoke of the catastrophic threat posed by the ravages of global heating, the 33 million people displaced by floods in Pakistan, and the moral and economic imperative to honour our pledges. (2/6)

#M25 #COP27
You don't get to recycle words and promises — you owe it to the British people to act.

Today is Remembrance Day, we call on you to honour all those who served and loved their country. (3/6)
