🚨 BREAKING: JUST STOP OIL SUPPORTERS FOUND GUILTY OF CONSPIRACY

❌ The 5 were arrested 9 times and remanded 7 times during the trial, which had heavy reporting restrictions.

🇬🇧 @ForstMichel said: “The imposition of such sanction is not only appalling but may also violate the United Kingdom’s obligations under international law”.

🦺 Cressie gave her defence statement to the jury today at Isleworth Crown Court, before @ChrisGPackham was called as a witness.

🧵 Thread of her statement.

📷 Photo credit: Denise Baker Image On 20th July 2022, I climbed up onto a gantry over the M25. I hung up two banners – one said “Just Stop Oil” (the campaign in whose name I was taking action) and the other said “40 Degrees” (this was a day after the 40C heatwave scorched the UK, burnt down houses and left people dead).

The Chairman of the @Conservatives is tweeting lies about protesters being glued to The Cenotaph.

The reality is that they were dragged off the road and arrested by police for protesting in the street, under legislation his corrupt party introduced.

Share and expose this lie. @Conservatives They were marching, peacefully, along Whitehall to Parliament Square. But that's not stopped @LeeAndersonMP_ from quite literally politicising the Cenotaph and war dead. We are disgusted and appalled.

🚨 BREAKING: Just Stop Oil begin actions on Monday, 30th Oct. This is our message to @metpoliceuk chief, Sir Mark Rowley:

Until you prosecute the criminals responsible for crimes against humanity and acts of genocide, Just Stop Oil supporters will remain in civil resistance.

The facts are clear. New oil and gas licensing in 2023 will kill hundreds of millions of people, adding to the already mounting global death toll from climate breakdown. To know these facts and still encourage drilling for UK new oil and gas is reckless and immoral.

You may have seen that @grantshapps (the man who toyed with putting number-plates on bicycles and is shortest serving Home Secretary in history) said we are "misguided".
