The latest wave of Extinction Rebellion protests proved one too many for the people and authorities in London.
The group has now been banned indefinitely from London and any members seeking to demonstrate in London face immediate arrest.
The group which claims to be in support of combatting climate change, made no demands and called for no specific action during a year of repeated vandalism, criminal damage, loss of jobs and chaos across the UK capital.
Blocking workers from going to work and children from going to schools, patients from going to hospital the anarchist group is much hated in the capital where they caused criminal damage to public transport, monuments, vehicles and businesses.
The group gained no support or sympathy in London where residents who were unable to attend work or hospital appointments were left confused as to what the group actually wanted.
Over their protests and vandalism throughout 2019 thousands have been arrested including celebrities. Their behaviour at times went beyond criminal anarchism and required responses from counter terror police such as when the group broken into London City Airport and climbed onto planes and trains endangering public life.
The group which also barricaded the BBC headquarters has vowed to continue their acts of anarchism and destruction despite the group banned in London.
The sea of plastic left by the so called climate protesters who leave plastic bags, tents, coats, bottles, speaker phones and partner plastic rubbish is an irony not lost on those who strongly oppose the group.
The sentiment in London is very much in support of combating climate change. But the senseless destruction and obstruction that the anarchist group causes without any actual plans of action has done nothing but outrage one of the world’s largest cities to the point that the group is now banned in London.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Al-Sahawat Times than ever but advertising revenues across the global media industry are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a total paywall. We want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Al-Sahawat Times’ independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe truly ethical media and an unbias perspective really matters.
“I appreciate there not being a paywall: it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few. I’m happy to make a contribution so others with less means still have access to information.”
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, the future of ethical media and the futures of our staff and their families would be much more secure. For as little as £1, you can support Al-Sahawat Times and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
