Just Stop Oil protesters disrupt London Pride over ‘polluting’ sponsors

Met police make arrests after activists block parade in Piccadilly by sitting in front of Coca-Cola truck

PA Media Sun 2 Jul 2023 00.00 AEST

Just Stop Oil protesters have disrupted London’s Pride march in protest over the event accepting sponsorship money from “high-polluting industries”.

A number of protesters were arrested after blocking the road in front of a Coca-Cola truck.

The Metropolitan police said protesters sat in the middle of the road on Piccadilly at 1.30pm, causing the parade to stop.

After 16 minutes, police arrested seven protesters for public nuisance offences and the parade continued again one minute later.

The police were especially prompt in removing the Just Stop Oil protestors, who on this occasion don’t appear to have glued themselves to anything.

Beating on the Just Stop Oil protestors with a large sex toy ( produced from oil or natural gas) would be the likely outcome in the US.

Curious why the fast response from law enfarcement when they typically drag their heels for hours where JSO is concerned

At the Ashes it was the players themselves who had to remove the protesters.
Not a timely response earlier this week.
And the Ashes is big enough news it gets an update on every TV news bulletin in England.

Just what’s needed in the battle against JSO, a new Trans Army fighting them on a second front!

It was to be expected that at some point it would come down to whose cause should deserve the most attention. The victors will eventually eat their young.

It is not about accomplishing goals or progress in any direction, it is about grievance and victimhood.

“My victim can beat up your victim.”

“Oh Yeah! Well my victim is more aggrieved than your victim.”

We need to re-institute the selective service system so that we can draft these ninnies and watch them escape to Canada. Then they can war with each other as they burn down the wilderness.

Actually the Trans Army will not be fighting from a second front, but they will be fighting from the rear…

What a cat fight that must have produced. Since these kinds of things have warnings about children and sensitive viewers, I won’t be watching the video, thank you.

Looks like a few of the JSO “gays” sitting down, should be marching in the “Lack-of-Pride” procession.

July 1, 2023 7:10 pm

ps: Note that most of the JSO sitters seem to be wearing rubber souled shoes. 🙂

Makes them look even DUMBER. and even more HYPOCRITICAL than that nonce that flew to Mexico for his holidays.

Is that bloke with the baseball cap and a mustache wearing a dress? Are they rainbow people or stop oil people? I’m confused. Are they ”Just Stop Oil-Rainbows” people perhaps? Pretty sure they want to stop something……..

They sure move those protestors quickly when there’s something important going on like naked men prancing in the streets unlike when it’s just people going about their lives getting to their jobs and bringing their kids to doctors appointments.

Unaffected by disruptors maybe, although I’m not sure really how you’d tell the difference?

It seems the Met are more afraid of the Alphabet Soupers than the Climate Cultists.

It must have broke the JSO protesters to have to “go to work” on gay pride parade day.

Heh. Probably find out there were supposed to be 30 or so disruptors but only 7 could be bothered to sit down!

From The Guardian article:
“LGBTQ+ people were “suffering first” in the “accelerating social breakdown” caused by the climate crisis, they added.”

I’m wondering… How are gay people “suffering first”? This doesn’t make any sense to me.
Does global warming affect gay people differently than straight people?

Well the Guardian would know these things as they are the coordinating agent officially tasked with developing the mood music and headlines needed to keep the fraud in the air (waves) world wide!
The only social breakdown out there, is being supported and encouraged by the Guardian so all the alphabet types now know who to blame….Here’s looking at you Monbiot!

CammyCammycammy,

It says ““LGBTQ+ people …” and you simply say “gay people”.

Have you not been paying attention. The LGBTQ+ includes 100’s of different … things(?) … that you are supposed to cater to.

If you take the mean (average) suffering of the 100’s of different ‘things’ you absolutely see that they are suffering first.

In your bigotry of simply associating & stereotyping ‘gay people’ as typical of ‘LGBTQ+ people’, you have shown your true colors and you are hereby cancelled, and your opinion is no longer wanted or even allowed in polite conversation.

Clearly we have overproduced when it comes to completely useless idiots. To see them fighting each other for air time on the equally useless media is entertainment of the highest mark.
