I mean using a helicopter is also pretty daft when your name is Just Stop Oil and your whole schtick is weird stunts. People here know that I'm a climate hawk and even I think this lot are dickheads.
Wait a minute, are you saying Just Stop Oil were actually flying a helicopter over Lord's?

The Australian states have passed laws imposing heavy fines on protesters who block major roads and bridges etc. Too many protesters have been making nuisances of themselves.

It might be one of those that is propelled by a wound up rubber band.

That’s what protesting is about though. If you hold a rally in a suburban cul de sac, no one will know you’ve done it
The laws they tried to ram through here in SA a few weeks back were ****ing absurd. I was caught up in that protest that triggered it - it's on the way to work - but that was no where near a proportional reaction.

At least you won't create enemies by doing it though

I still eat an extra steak every time I hear about vegan protestors

Don't think England have been bad by any means with the ball but they haven't looked that threatening either tbh

just learnt that border has parkinsons :-O
Yeah I read his quotes in the interview, some depressing stuff in there

Border, who turns 68 in July, was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2016. "I walked into the neurosurgeon's and he said straight up, 'I'm sorry to tell you but you've got Parkinson's'," Border said. "'Just the way you walked in. Your arms straight down by your side, hanging not swinging.' He could just tell."

"I'm a pretty private person and I didn't want people to feel sorry for me sort of thing," he told Newscorp. "Whether people care you don't know. But I know there'll come a day when people will notice."

"I get the feeling I'm a hell of a lot better off than most. At the moment I'm not scared, not about the immediate future anyway. I'm 68. If I make 80, that'll be a miracle. I've got a doctor friend and I said if I make 80, that'll be a miracle, and he said, 'That will be a miracle.'"

"No way am I going to get another 100, that's for sure," Border said. "I'll just slip slowly into the west."
