Welldone!

" This morning climate activists from around the country have shut
down the
South's biggest agrofuel depot.

The campaigners, who say that agrofuels will cause runaway climate
change
if left unchecked, have dropped a 35 foot banner from the top of one
of
the site's biggest oil containers and are blocking fuel lorries from
leaving or entering the base.

Dean Rivers, who is currently chained to the roof of the oil depot
said:
"companies like Greenergy and Tescos who use Thurrock are profiteering
out
of the rush to biofuels causing food price rises, hunger for millions,
ecosystem destruction and accelerated Climate Change. These are crimes
against humanity and the earth from which we may never recover." The
protest is currently stopping one truck from leaving the Thurrock site
every 90 seconds..."

yes, you've kind of shot your defense of protesters in the foot. Well
done Doug, I applaud your indefatigably.

Didn't you say they were just in the camp to promote their causes via
workshops?
And that the collection of weapons, bolt cutters and chains found
nearby couldn't be anything to do with them as it was just a peaceful
camp?

I'd go as far as saying you've blown their entire leg off with your
badly aimed quickly shot off commentary...

Nope. What I actually said was that most are peaceful protesters but a
few believe in direct action. When are you finally going to learn to
read and quote properly?

... no they didn't

It takes days, if not weeks, to shut down a petrochemical plant.

All your friends have done is stopped (temporarily) the movement of tankers
in and out of the plant.

Weren't "climate activists" protesting FOR this sort of thing only 5
years back? Can't they make their bloody minds up or are they really
nothing but of adolescent rebels in search of a cause who will protest
about anything, even if it contradicts what they were protesting about
only recently? The poor old enviroment , with friends like them....
