London Police say they're "fully prepared" to deal with "Just Stop Oil" criminals
twitter ^ | Nov 28 | Met police

@MetPoliceEvents

⚠️ Just Stop Oil activists are planning further disruptive activity from 28 Nov - 14 Dec ⚠️

We’re fully prepared. ✅

We will:

• Arrive quickly.

• Deal with the situation efficiently.

• Remove/arrest activists as appropriate.

• Return things to normal as soon as possible.

Since October we’ve arrested 7️⃣5️⃣5️⃣ Just Stop Oil activists. 1️⃣8️⃣2️⃣ have already been charged.

⚖️ We will continue to work with the CPS and the courts to bring to justice those who cause unacceptable disruption or damage to London.

🕵🏼 We know this success is prompting a change in their tactics:

• They will target roundabouts and key junctions.

• They will walk slowing in small groups to block roads instead of sitting down/glueing on.

This is intended to frustrate our response but we’ll be ready. ✅

The public shouldn’t underestimate the impact of this action:

👮🏻 11,923 officer shifts have been needed to respond to Just Stop Oil activity since October 1.

🏘️ Those officers could be in your community tackling knife crime, safeguarding the vulnerable & catching burglars.

We also recognise the impact on Londoners going about their daily lives.

💬 Commander @KarenFindlayMPS: “I completely understand the frustration and anger felt by the public who are seriously disrupted by a relatively small number of protestors and their deliberate tactics.“

As we have shown in recent months, where activists cross the line into criminality, we will respond.

Extraordinary tweets. I feel the public's patience will wear thin with these terrorists especially in the run up to Xmas....

They should be plucked out of society and sent somewhere that has no heat or oil. And left there...

Moving targets. Water cannons. I'm a big fan of water cannons.

Not to be a karen here but these items are made “from” oil, not “with “ oil..otoh even if they are 100% not manmade materials, the energy used to make these products was probably from coal fired power plants in china

It's like the police are saying "we are fully prepared to deal with the murderers in our cities. We will arrive after they have committed their crimes (murder in this case), arrest them, and bring them to justice."

"If these murderers think they will get away with murder, they are sadly mistaken."

As a side note (from the police, of course): "If you think you might be a murder victim in the near future, you can be a big help to us and everyone if you would please get your affairs in order."

Hopefully someone bringing their elderly grandmother to the ER because she’s having a stroke will encounters such a traffic jam and runs over one of them and,as a result,manages to save his/her grandma.

This has to be the ugliest thread post I’ve ever seen at FR, is there any way to eliminate all those infantile cartoonish colors and just post the text?

Setting a few very public very uncomfortable examples would do wonders for these little snowflakes boldness.

They pulled this crap at the Tour De France this year and spectators took out the trash before the police could step in.

While the video I’ve seen of this happening in art museums people are just standing around like zombies........I don’t think I could just stand by and watch.

They’ve always been fully prepared.

They were told to stand down and have complied.

--- "London Police say they're "'ully prepared' to deal with 'Just Stop Oil' criminals"

That is, AFTER they have written citations and arrested people openly reading bible verses challenging the LGBTQ game or Islam.

I am certain all these so called protesters are being paid. Funny how no one ever does a deep dive on these protesters finances.

Just like the mysterious pallets of bricks that were showing up at BLM/Antifa protests, I am certain these sudden professional protesters are being heavily subsidized and financed by any number of these climate change/one-world government groups.

They should be able to freely protest from a prison cell.

They SHOULD be treated the same way looters are treated. But that’s only one opinion.
