Re: Just Stop Oil
Obscene sentence for causing a delay on a motorway. Some rapists have received similar sentences. I hope they appeal.

What do you think would be an appropriate sentence and why?
You clearly feel strongly this a miscarriage of justice that requires an appeal.

Re: Just Stop Oil
None taken
In that case I’ll take the judgement of a crown court judge on legal matters over angry old man on internet
No offence

His judgement seems sound and will be overturned on appeal.

Re: Just Stop Oil
That sentence is ludicrous. We are more like a police state everyday and I don’t even support just stop oil.

Re: Just Stop Oil
If the rest of the JSO activists truly believe in their convictions, they'll double-down with even more disruptive protests. Afterall, the climate catastrophe matters more then doing a bit of time. I've even joined the local JSO WhatsApp group to suggest as much, and that I'll be behind them all the way if they do.

Re: Just Stop Oil
As a nation we should be horrified at the ebbing away of the right to protest. The “oh but they delayed traffic “ mob are truly short sighted

Re: Just Stop Oil
For all that people moan about the nanny state and supposed erosion of freedoms (Health and Safety gone mad! You can't say anything any more! The Muslims are banning Christmas!) they seem pretty keen on ushering in most of the things that you'd get under a Police state or outright dictatorship.

Re: Just Stop Oil
I think JSO are approaching this the wrong way. They reckon that at current consumption rates, oil will run out in about 30 years time. I think JSO should encourage people to use double the oil and it would all be gone in 15 years. Job done.
