Oil protests

I should say that this legislation was sparked off by students protesting against climate change a couple of weeks ago.

Two German Uni students were deported and the aforementioned legislation pushed through the NSW Parliament in one day.

How so?

Hear hear. What a shame about ours.

you Have to be careful about banning the right to protest. Would you make it selective, or make it a blanket ban. ?

I am all in favour of the right to protest.
However, when such protests result in the obstruction of important and essential movement and processes it is necessary to remove the offenders and punish them if necessary to deter further protests.
An excellent example of a protest which would inevitably be acted against would be some wokists attempting to block the progress of the Queen’s carriage down the Mall!
Can you imagine it? :rofl:

Thanks to these tree huggers a lot of service stations have no diesel. We tried 4 yesterday with no luck. Police are wet f***s. They should be getting rid of them.

I agree. What I’d like to know, and have never heard a reasonable answer, is why the police can’t arrest them or at least move them on.
I can only assume that it is instructions ‘from above’.

Of course it is possible that these tree huggers you all so casually sneer at might be right and you are condemning your great grandchildren to a very uncertain future.

The world’s climate scientists and governments have declared climate change is now a threat to human wellbeing and warned we are about to miss the window to “secure a liveable and sustainable future for all”.

The finding comes in the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report on the impacts of climate change and how we can adapt to them.

The new report found the scale of the impacts from climate change threatened to overwhelm the world’s ability to adapt in the coming decades, with some impacts requiring rapid and radical transformations in how we live and operate, combined with immediate and sharp cuts to greenhouse gas emissions.

Immediate actions aimed at stopping warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius could reduce many of the most severe impacts to society and ecosystems, but will not stop all of them.

Current global policies put the world on a course of at least 2.1C warming by 2100, and possibly as much as 3.9C.

Don’t ban Blankets, heaven knows, we need them ever more with energy cost increases.

Blankets are a bit like climate change. They go in and out of fashion.

We hear of all these warnings that life on the Earth is about to end.
Why am I not worried?
Because it’s all happened before.

If something isn’t done in the near future about the proliferation of nuclear and biological weaponry and the nutcases that have access to it the end might be nearer than we think.
