Climate change protesters targeted a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's “The Last Supper”

On the other side of the Channel, Dutch farmers are turning their protest up to 11 after the “green” government is trying to squeeze the farmers. The fisherman have even joined in.

The protests are about large-scale climate change caused by the burning of fossil fuels, with particular emphasis in this case on the granting of new oil exploration licenses.

…which destroy the environment, cause global warming and climate change. US led NATOs unprecedented sanctions on Russia are not helping either. More coal is being used and smart countries like China and India are buying more fossil fuels.

so at least they are doing something.

If these groups and individuals were really concerned about these issues they would try and win over the public rather than continuing to alienate them, with stunts including blocking roads and bridges and disrupting emergency services, vandalism and glueing themselves to electric tube trains in one of the most deprived areas of London. Most of these stunts are more about participants shouting “Look at ME! Look at how edgy and superior I am!” Getting arrested so they can have bragging rights at the next dinner party.

The fingers could be cut off, the limbs would require surgery. with or without anesthetic?

Excuse my English sense of humour.

If you want to change thinking, the best way to achieve this is to aggregate/win support/ views, attitudes, beliefs of the public.

This is the opposite, sixth form petty politics, silly sods that should know better.

Once you start vandalizing someone else's property for your "cause"

how about researching what oil companies did in Nigeria Delta, and how they are doing all they can to get out of paying fines and not one of them went to prison. Many people died.

diffferent to putting a spot of glue on the wall of a public space.

Once you start vandalizing someone else's property for your "cause", I stop listening. Prosecute them to the fullest. I suggest the Judge should sentence them to 90 days...of performing automotive oil changes.
