“Met tries to distract from its own horrendous recent record, while pitching for yet more power to clamp down on whoever they feel like”
49 rapes by ONE cop. Never forget.
I mean…good? People work with oil because it’s cheap. If protests are a way of making it costly, then it’s doing its job.
Why is the default thought to just “Wait until the protests are over”?
That’s still got to be orders of magnitude less than the externalized costs of the oil companies in the same time period - even just counting the costs to the UK gov’t and population.
I want to say this makes me happy but who am I kidding, the Met’s obviously saying this to justify demanding more police funding.
And don’t forget trying to drum up support to ban protests.
Those are rookie numbers; gotta pump those numbers up.
Well, just stop oil then :)
These figures are totally made up.
Oh no… Anyway
I’m sure they can sell or loan of one or two stolen artifacts to pay for what amounts to a drop of money in their annual spending.
