Send them all to China, America or India..
You all deserve to be put in jail and throw the key away for your heinous crimes
The urgency of XR is widely felt. For decades there should have been a focus on investment in renewable energy sources, sustainable production, reduced meat consumption,etc. Too costly we were told. Now the real cost of not doing these is clear. Business profits, the planet pays
BBCPolitics Bring back the death penalty.
Are they being realistic? Until we get sustainable alternatives fuels, other than oil and gas we have little option but to use them. Why not help develop alternatives. Electric cars have a long way to! By the way - shipping is a huge polluter.
Some people have definitely got too much time on their hands
So people are stopped from using trains, and buses because of these idiots who think they are saving the planet use glue to attach themselves to the trains.. Glue is made from plant or animal parts! So what part of the climate are you trying to protect wankpuffins?
2/2 across all our platforms where you will be treated by great deference by our shillers sorry presenters who luuuuurve the smell of outlaw leather. ofcom
Are you a crustie/ general layabout/ poly lecturer/ permanent student/ sponger? Are you an anti-capitalist cretin masquerading as a greenie? If so come to central London and behave like spoilt toddlers and we at the BBC will guarantee your spokes-genders access... 1/2
Now it's THREATS of TERRORISM from these CLOWNS, who now say, either we do what they want or they will cause more disruption to Peoples lives, HOLD UP ELECTRIC TRAINS & I'll HAPPILY put MORE Exhaust fumes in the air with my 3 litre Diesel Car. They get in my way they can look out
BBCPolitics Throw them all in jail! Or, better still, fund a nice, quiet, small island somewhere & dump them all on it.....lets see how long they can survive without the trappings of modernity! The first person to light a fire loses!
Like most zealots, they suffer from tunnel vision. They cannot see the real effects of their activities.
Appears that using the words climate change when protesting gives you freedom to cause chaos for millions of people trying to go about their lawful business
Drastic action is needed within the next 10 according to Sir David A to avoid an environmental catastrophe. The Government's proposals, even if met, are not drastic enough according to experts. The ExtinctionR group are doing us a favour in bringing the urgency to the fore.
BBCPolitics If everyone was listening you know, there'd be a chance that we could save the show... Supertramp
BBCPolitics These people are just stupid..no MPs in.. stopping people using public transport.. slowing traffic which causes problems..one of our biggest dangers is the ongoing destruction on the rain forests which doesn't seem to be in protest fashion just now
Good lock them up, give them a criminal record so they are unemployable
They are rich Middle class, they will get a fine at the most.
Hey all Brexit followers. Get ya arse over here and check out MsSim40 profile. They make it really easy for us! 😂 Vote brexitparty_uk Ditch Fake ExtinctionRebellion Movement.
BBCPolitics Maybe the protesters should be getting some education first instead of promoting the oligarch's principles of higher taxes, higher product charges, and realise that the methyl-Mercury poisoning now in process was started 60/70 years go and cannot be reversed.
“Police have made nearly 400 arrests in London over the protests”. Is this serious? 400 arrested. This is dangerous. Where is the human rights and their human rights? This is unacceptable. hrw hrw_ar KenRoth.
Ffffake news
BBCWorld should of nust drove off. See how long they stayed up there then
All those hundreds of cars stop-starting in London because of this, not very good for the environment is it?
And most of the protestors themselves use public transport to travel. Have you seen their outfits/getups ? They all are average/poor Londoners who even are jobless and homeless. Such event brings a change into their daily bored life (Doing Yoga and Dance on roads).
Send in the Army to help the Police!
So why are these people not demonstrating in India, China etc who some of the worst polluters and not against European Govts who are trying at least to do something— probably because they would be locked up for a very long time quite rightly
Idiots.
SkyNews itvnews Channel4News UK charges those affecting the City first Law is blind to its own corruption
If I was the train driver, I would have been more than willing to drive off. If idiots put themselves in harms way, they should have no one to blame but their own stupidity.
If our police services are under the financial constraints claimed, then Queens Bench should allow them to recuperate all the costs incurred by such reckless actions.
Big brother is alive and well in Britain.
It's alright, they'll all be back at mummy and daddy's for Easter dinner at the weekend and back to their dorms next week. Those of us who use public transport can get back to normal.
When protesting about the environment, why deter people from using public transport? 🤬
Stop blocking people getting to their hospital appointments. I have a heart condition and can't walk far so need to get a train & taxi. Taxi & train is electric. HELP!
There should be investment in hydrogen fuel for cars. There can be conversation kits to convert older cars.
I've never seen so many white people in one place.
Privilaged idiots
I suppose they’ll receive a fine & mummy or Daddy will pay the fine. These people & not so much protesters as entertainers. They’ve given me few chuckles. Can’t wait for today’s display 😂😂
If this is our gene pool then extension is a very good thing and can't come soon enough ExtinctionRebellion
'BBC News' isn't news. It's just state propaganda. Tell us how you colluded in BREXIT.
These muppets are undoing all the good work done by Attenborough. Alienating public does not help the cause.
Why target public transport? Surely public transport users are doing their bit for the planet.
Quick social media search of the people bbcnews have interviewed from this protest will show one spokesperson (when not protesting that ALL cars are evil) calls her own car 'baby' and calls herself 'proud mummy' when she bought it. Apparently it's EVERYONE ELSE'S car at fault.
brought an important issue to the fore-brexit isn't the be all of all our troubles
They'll be tying themselves against bycyles next.
They aim to bring DLR - relatively environmentally clean electric train system - to a standstill, forcing people into their cars if they're going to get to work. Home goal? Hypocrisy? Or rather they're just there to cause trouble.
Who's funding them?
ExtinctionRebellion, a democracy free zone for rich, white middle class kids.
