London climate-change arrests top 120 on second day of street protests

LONDON - Police have arrested 209 people in two days of protests after climate-change activists blocked some of London’s most important junctions including Oxford Circus and Marble Arch, causing traffic chaos.

Police said they expected the demonstrations to continue in coming weeks and had to strike the right balance between allowing the right to peaceful protest while ensuring disruption was kept at a minimum. More than a dozen activists had been arrested at Waterloo Bridge near parliament by lunchtime on Tuesday.

Two protesters on Monday climbed up scaffolding, writing “Shell Knows!” in red paint on the front of the building and three protesters glued their hands to revolving doors at the entrance.Tents littered the prime shopping area of Oxford Circus on Tuesday morning, with some activists huddled beneath a model boat with the words “Tell the Truth” across its side. One placard read: “Rebel for Life”.

Proper mong fest mongs everywhere, it’s been reported the biggest gathering of mongs in London this year .

I heard you get 50 liberal points for going beyond just virtue signaling and actually getting arrested.

don't protest! praise the continuing of Earth and its way in the universe. Climate is inevitable.

I like the artistry of the red costumes. They look like they could be auditioning to be the ghosts of climate past. But those actors know nothing about the climate.

Message from Sudan protestors: climate-change protestors in UK & WORLDWIDE, Keep Up, you might fall on the way but that won't stop you from going toward your correct action, what ever it is', Murtada Sirelkhatim

Nobody expects the SPANISH INQUISITION!!!!

The British unwashed swamp dwellers

The Odds of that cardboard sign being recycled are now at zero percent because of the paint applied to it. A new tree will have to be cut down for the next sign to be made. Deforestation causes Climate Change as much as anything and these people have Zero Awareness of that fact.

Is.. that.. WHITE FACE?! HOW OFFENSIVE!!

I am a changed man.
