Just stop oil

Re: Just stop oil

I wonder if the obsessiveness of Vince has alienated some players and supporters - the players eat vegan food, even taking it away with them. At the end of the day it's a football club with normal blokes and normal appetites. Methinks the constant preaching and self-praising may not be going down too well with some..

Can’t comment about players but FGR have a unique fan base, having risen from County football, thru non-league, it’s a family oriented fan base, with older fans having been there for decades and younger fans joining in the last decade. They don’t have the same percentage of normal bloke supporters as other clubs (I.e 30-50 year olds are not as prevalent as in most clubs). I do think that the JSO involvement is stretching their trust in him.

Ladies And Gentlemen

That was a party political broadcast on behalf of the Conservative Party

Judging by that, I’d have said that the Conservatives were far too wimpish for him.

Re: Just stop oil

So ‘cracking jaws’ is ok then?

I look at this way, I take my elderly 88 year old mother to a lot of hospital and doctors appointments etc etc. etc. If these muppets stopped me in any way shape or form for getting her to an appointment on time, then yes, I probably would get out of the car and 'crack jaws'. I'm 64 years old and not prone to violence and haven't a criminal record in any way shape or form. However, these brain dead imbeciles have got to realise that they are doing far more harm to people than good. Even normally placid people like myself can raise to anger if provoked. And these fascists sure know how to provoke.

So tough luck if somebody misses their appointment and dies because of it?

you would physically assault someone if they made you and your mother late for a doctor's appointment?

does that just apply to Just stop oil, or would it apply to people who stall their car at the lights or people who take too long in the queue at Gregg's too?

What a ridiculous comparison, in both of those examples the outcome is not premeditated.

Re: Just stop oil

The reason why this chap attacked this Just Stop Oil Fascist:


A Just Stop Oil activist was punched to the floor by the partner of a pregnant woman after a car crash.

The accident was caused by the vehicle trying to change lanes and was hit by another car, nothing to do with protesters, just poor observation by the driver. He then took it out on the protester, just a simple street thug who cannot control his temper.

Re: Just stop oil

Just remember folks that the suffragettes were treated exactly the same during the their protests, They were assalted in the streets by bystanders, beaten up by the police, jailed and forced feed when on hunger strike. Today they are treated as heroes.

They were protesting for the right for women to vote. JSO are protestesting against the oil companies denial of global warning and their efforts to keep it off the agenda by spending vast fortunes on climate denial. You may not like their methods but at least they have the balls to stand up for what they believe in. I think in the future people will look back and elevate them to the same level as the suffragettes.

Re: Just stop oil

The most striking thing about Just Stop Oil is that the public don't support them. They aren't achieving what they set out to do. Pissing people off is not winning them around, and that is really important to do as the wider topic is critical

Re: Just stop oil

The most ironic thing about Just Stop Oil is we did the planet would grind to halt as oil supports millions of mechanisms and manufacturers, without it we'd walk around naked, not have appliances, books , newspapers, basically nothing as manufacturers would grind to halt .

Just For Oil are just another politcal financed group created to cause turmoil.

Sadly they are as poster above rightly states damaged a decent protest and concern, as with most things of this size sensibility and planning is needed, not action that puts peoples lives and jobs at risk .

Depending on the circumstances I can understand and in some cases sympathise with people angry and frustrated with Just Stop Oil protests - especially if the inconvenience slips into something more serious.

But please don’t call them fascists. They aren’t fascists. The term fascist should always be used to describe a particular set of beliefs and behaviours, not used as a casual insult - however annoyed you are. There are real fascists out there - a lot of them - and they make JSO protestors look like a Barbie Hen Party (with the politics to match).
