Etienne Stott earlier made a speech while sitting on top of a bus stop alongside TV presenter and naturalist Chris Packham
The 39-year-old Briton, who won C2 canoe slalom gold at London 2012, was carried from Waterloo Bridge by four police officers on Sunday evening. "I feel like it is really tough to disrupt people's lives like this, but this is really important because I believe the disruption that will come down the line if we do not declare a climate emergency and do not tackle this situation of climate change, it will just dwarf any inconvenience here today."
Never heard of him, I wonder if he is a relative of the Stott at the Met Office or the much more informed Professor Phillip Stott !!!!
BBCRadioLondon The comments below are conclusive evidence that the majority of people in this country are as thick as shit 💩
Another HYPOCRITE who FLEW the World competing & winning medals, then he tells us we've not to create CO2, the planes he's flown in probably dumped 50Kg of CO2 an hour, how many TONS of CO2 has he help DUMP into the Environment over the years, another bloody jumped up Hypocrite

Spoilt brats.
Try rowing out of that one Etienne 😀
Arrested and charged
Looks divvy.
Drugs 😕
Anything for attention, eh?
Who cares
Strip him of all his medals
Middle class gathering
Canoein's a poofter sport. real footeh men don't mind a bit er extra sun.
Is his canoe made of plastic
If they were at a refinery, of some sort of industrial factory spewing garbage into the atmosphere I could understand. And also every one of us is to blame, our entire society revolves around waste, and new phones, cosmetics, oh yeah are you wearing makeup, driving a car?
If it wasn't for climate change, he wouldn't be able to slalom around in his canoe like that because the water would be too cold!
My question is simple Why? Why BBC are you giving all the airtime to these people. Why are you ignoring the Veterans who outnumbered the tree huggers but protested in a lawful manner. Beware your current reporting policy doesn't bite you
must of missed that Olympics who
Our politicians need to listen..why are we not prioritising the environment .All nations,all faiths need to cone together and meet this challenge
Now the hypocritical knob sacks have gone home the massive plastic clean up starts in Hyde Park
Trust him to stick his oar in
Chuck him in the Thames.
lock him up an throw away the key
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why arrest was made of a peaceful protesters ?
BBCRadioLondon Yet another hypocrite! He used to be a respected sportsman.
Olympic canoeing champion Etienne Stott escapes police by canoeing down the Thames
Perhaps he should just stick to paddling his own canoe.🤔
Stop giving them coverage, the UK has very good climate change initiatives; they should be protesting in countries that don’t!!! Go fly somewhere and make a difference.
Ironic. Look how many times he's dumped a bit of plastic in the water.
Middle class home county hippies who probably got taken to school in daddy's 4 by 4. When they are ready to go home to mammy and daddy i wonder if they will walk or use the polluting public transport
BBCLondonNews Dolt
BBCLondonNews Thank you Etienne!
Jesus they love the limelight ....never heard of her before ...what’s her Canoe made out of wood and skins ......No An Oil Derivate ...
All rich layabouts
Easter holidays over soon, hence, move to 'dialogue' so that they can go back to their offices or colleges where they rely on fossil fuels and plastics to get through their day. Maybe they should boycott work until their employers make changes. H, but then they will lose pay.
Teach him for having a French name.
This is brilliant well done Etienne! I’m currently scrolling through on this tweet to try and find someone that isn’t a moron. He’s doing his bit for god sake! Some people obviously don’t care about us lot who actually will live (or try to) through climate change.
Should have worn yellow vests, been pro-Brexit and shouted in officers faces. Police do nothing.
climatechangehoax don’t be deceived with globalist agenda
He is a purist, not a realist. The next big schism in Extinction rebellion. There are some excommunicados waiting around the corner for people like him.
chuck him in the river😀🚣♀️🚣♀️🏊♂️
Drove to London in a Diesel car paid for by his hobby of rowing plastic oars in a canoe made of plastic.
The trouble I have with these celebs/intl folk, is their lifestyles should be the first thing they change before preaching.. They use/used way more resources, in pursuit of and the maintenance of the successful lives they have
Gooood!
We need to eat more cows as these animals are putting too much Methane into our atmosphere.
Ok ok, don't rock the boat..
Yes smile for the camera whoever you are!
Stott - what a fecking hypocrite!
Ban him
I saw pics of the mess they left, plastic bottles everywhere, haven’t they heard of recycling. Thankfully a few of the more conscientious protestors cleaned up after the muppets
Meanwhile us ordinary folk are quietly doing what we can at home. Might have had more respect for many of them if they had instead spent the week litter picking along the roadsides and rivers. That is what us ordinary folk do.
don't bother taking him to the station, just chuck him in the Thames
I bet he never takes a jet to go play row row boats
Who
They want him to feel the change in climate, from frying pan into furnace
Oh dear...Just imagine if he was an Tommy Robinson supporter...think they would have neen SO pastient ..SO gentle? All he has to do is smile at someone and they send in SWAT!!
The police have got much better things to do all day than bothering with these overgrown children.
Respect out of the window!
So, this Olympic Champion who has spent his entire sporting career traveling to competions around the world by car and plane with his plastic/glass/carbon fibre canoe, is protesting about environmental damage....? Hmmm?
And....your next comment is?
Who is picking up the tab for the policing and disruption over the weekend
Funny they all seem to have silver spoon and double barrelled hoity toity names. Privately educated by the profits of daddies factories.
He travels the world doing a sport and I'm sure in relative warmth and comfort but denies luxuries to others. Goes to show you can have you kayak and heat it.
I hope they all get the same punishment as anyother law breakers, or is there a different law for the middle class, or is they don't give them a criminal record
Up sxxt creak without a paddle 🤣🤣
His career is going downhill rapidly. Oh wait.
You’re up the creek without a paddle mate, did you get that sinking feeling when arrested ?
I don't have a canoe who he is!
Who saw this coming? 😂😂😂 attentionseekers
Great publicity, I take it he'll be going into the jungle with ant and Dec
Coxless fours
As a canoeist you think he might be looking forward to the 'end of the world' rise in sea levels, lots more places to use a canoe and he could get around quite easily.
Amazing to see Etienne Scott taking part to protest for the future generations! Greta inspires so many kids and teenagers! Humanity is standing at a crossroad! World Politicians must take action! ClimateChangeTheFacts ExtinctionRebelion ClimateChange
Up the creak without a paddle
I propose hitting ExSTINKsion Rebellion where it hurts, Block every approach road to Glastonbury.
very helpful of police to unglue 'protestors' as the sun goes down and it gets a bit chilly. 🤡🤡
How middle class ?
I knew he'd stick his oar in
Winning
If the government approves of your rally you are doing it wrong.
One more hypocrite for the cells. 😏
Heroes, putting themselves on the line just so we can realise our awful, consumptionist and polluting lives are wrong. ANC what a difference they’ve made in public opinion!
Who cares if he was a medal winner , break the law get arrested .
Yet he uses a plastic Canoe
