I understand that @JustStop_Oil have put paint on the front of Barclays bank.

Good citizens of Leeds.

This may not be your cup of yorkshire tea but do remember that @Barclays are the worst climate offending bank in Europe by financially supporting fossil fuel expansion.

@antonioguterres said that ‘We are on the highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator’ Barclays are profiteering from a climate breakdown. A future which in all probability, and without major systemic change, will mean that Yorkshire will face mass suffering.

@JustStop_Oil are simply seeking to stop the government from going against ethics and justice by opening new fossil fuel infrastructure. They want a liveable future for our children and grandchildren. So do I.

For those against such action. Given the reality of climate breakdown what actions do you think are reasonable and effective in drawing attention and bringing the necessary change? This may not be it? but what is? We must do something. I’ll be joining the #TheBigOne

As an interesting aside I am told that another group were protesting @Barclays before @JustStop_Oil turned up. If I wasn’t n hospital I would have been at this other protest which stands against Barclays financially supporting and apartheid and militarised violence.
