Yes, but that can be as simple as they think they people will go and do it again is released.
I remember this from the miners strike, friends who were arrested and charged for offences while picketing were denied bail. Because they’d be back there the following day.
Several received short prison sentences.

I can't imagine Dr Bradbrook would ever be that rude and caterwauling. She's charming, intelligent, engaging ...

Can't they just section them.
Who waits til all the politicans are on holiday to organise a protest. Who decides the best way to address climate change is to fuck up public transport and cause traffic jams. All in a country thats done more to reduce carbon emissions than any other developed nation.
Probably start burning down trees next

Maximum sentence for this is two years. Malicious Damage Act 1861
Annex 1 on this link has a lovely flowchart:

1 DLR train. Also I'm not sure its possible to discern traffic jams caused by this from traffic jams caused by everything else in London. If you're not a fan of traffic jams you probably shouldn't be driving on London.
Good effort though, will kick the Easter weekend off nicely.

Looks to me that they are holding on despite the police. Parliament square was cleared last night and they were back the same morning. Police don't have manpower to deal with mobile protest.
Plus I guess more will come on weekend. As not working.
So yes come and have a look.

City Airport's not letting anyone in the terminal unless they're on a plane. Seems pretty pointless. I'm sure they could shell out for a couple of tickets.

Hitting airports just puts pressure on the the government/police to clear them. Disrupting people's daily routines and causing traffic jams is one thing. Wrecking holiday plans, medical supply flights/connections etc, is something else.

The police love this shower because of their aggressive pro-snitching policy and their complete lack of basic security.
Repossessed cars can't produce emissions.

Sorry looking it up properly we are second, behind the US, though Trump may start impacting on that

If you've got figures showing the US has done the most to limit climate change there's a chance they may be complete horseshit.

This isnt quite true or fair.
Easy to say this when you havent actually come down and had a look. There are lots of different opinions and more militant voices too. Sure there are a few daft spokespeople but that doesnt define thousands of people. There is also lots of public engagement and interest, from what Ive seen. People who might not otherwise be involved or hear about such stuff.
I am aware of the purer than pure criticisms to be made, but the fact that the liberal press and establishment are moaning about economic impact, effect on daily lives and undemocratic forceful action should show us the need for solidarity and support. Maybe not uncritically but definitely not just moaning and dismissing. Whats the point in left politics if it isnt engaging with whats happening now rather than the idealised past or future.

This.
Whilst I'm pretty critical of XR thus far, I'm in no way condemning or dismissing them.
Struggle changes people.
I'm drawing from my own experience of seeing movements change, for better and for worse, as a result of struggle and am watching with an open mind to see what happens with XR.

Not talking to the police isn't about ideological purity it's about safety and solidarity.

But it's perfectly understandable given the likely class background of the leadership that they haven't yet learned this.
They may learn it in due course though.
Till then it's certainly an issue.
