Britain is in the grips of another fuel crisis with one in three petrol stations in the south forced to shut after climate activists caused days of disruption at oil terminals. MailOnline has more.
Around 1,200 pumps south of the midlands have been forced to turn away motorists, the Campaign for Fair Fuel has claimed, in the wake of the action by Just Stop Oil.
The eco protestors have been targeting oil terminals across the south of the country, including in Hertfordshire, Essex and Warwickshire this morning by locking themselves to pipes.
The action has been blamed for shortages of both petrol and diesel at stations compounding misery for drivers already facing record prices at the pump, reported at over £2 a litre in some areas.
Mass protests have seen over 800 arrests across the country and put a “real strain” on local police services with over 50 more arrests expected today.
The protests are exacerbating existing supply issues due to increased demand after Covid lockdowns and Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
Frustrated drivers have blasted the eco activists for causing “misery” to the lives of ordinary people who need to work and have no alternative but to use their cars.
Police today also slammed the criminals for putting lives at risk with their “exceptionally dangerous” climate stunts as one force has spent over £1 million on policing the protests.
The action at oil terminals is taking place at the same time as climate protests in London, led by Extinction Rebellion, have shut down two major bridges in the city.
Vauxhall and Lambeth Bridge are currently occupied by a number of protestors, equipped with banners and flags, despite being a key crossing point for access to St Thomas’s Hospital.

Isn’t it time to designate these organisations either unions or terrorists so that the assets of the individuals can be seized.
Only when they lose access to the wealth that allows them to behave like this will they stop.
I’d go more medieval than that. Using the principle of actions speaking louder than words, condemn all those convicted to live without petroleum-derived products for one year. That is not just fuel of course, but all plastics, many cosmetics and a constellation of other wonderful things our chemists have invented over the years to improve our lives. Some of them life savers.
You can’t easily make toilet roll without a machine that requires lubrication. That alone should give them pause for thought.
Surely “condemn” is not the right word, Vaxtastic. You’re helping them to be true to their ideals. I’m all in favour of that. Nothing like ideological consistency.
Of course. I meant sentencing. With condemnation
Or just shoot them. They believe in reincarnation, so what do they care?
(The first sentence above is a joke. Please do not shoot anybody. The second sentence is not a joke.)
Then, after millions of years, pump the petroleum created from their bodies out of the ground and burn it as wastefully as possible
I saw a bit of the
All looking so earnest as they shuffled along the roads, no life in them whatsover, apart from the regular actorvists banging drums, singing their well rehearsed songs. Oh, and hardly any police!
useful idiotsprotest yesterday. Mostly oldies, all wearing their fluoride made gore-tex, carrying petroleum-oil based banners, and stuff. I bet NONE of them have a car or drive regularly.That’s something I always think when seeing one of these pictures: The groups seem to be composed of middle-class people who are either 25 years younger or 25 years older than me, ie, those who don’t yet work and those who work no longer.
You mean, the devil makes work for idle hands?
They are primarily LibDem voters, whose sole interest is telling other people what to do and how to run their lives.
Look into the eyes of a LibDem voter and you will recognise a sociopath.
They would be the worst type of people to be in charge – zealots and fanatics one and all with their ‘to them’ good intentions paving the way to hell.
Well said! After once spending two hours at a formal lunch on the same table as one of these psychopaths who spent the whole time telling the rest of us how we should be thinking – I’m all for bringing back the stocks (with tomatoes in tins supplied free).
I noticed those people who protest tend to be middle class and very into cycling on bicycles made from titanium and lycra made from oil. They also tend to be university educated and therefore not very sensible. What they don’t realise is they are the ones the Globalists want to wipe off the planet. They are in their stupidity creating their own demise.
The only time the police self service is under a real strain is when they don’t have enough officers to protect politicians, which appears to be their main purpose, along with rugby-tackling elderly white ladies protesting about the mandatory vaxxing of children.
Miners in 1984 were sometimes stopped on their way to demonstrations before they’d even driven a few miles.
These XR demonstrations are being “allowed” to happen.
XR could be proscribed.
Attacking the population in general, including patients on their way to hospital, is f***ing vile and reminiscent of hijacking planes full of innocent civilians.
What is extremely interesting is that the MSM and the political class are keeping completely shtum about where XR are really coming from. Mustn’t upset Princy?
Why is the Steiner cult even allowed to operate schools in this country, let alone inspect them themselves outside of the normal inspection systems?
But… if you happen to have your way blocked by XRers, there’s an easy way to become a hero. You’d have almost the whole country behind you.
They are indeed, just compare and contrast to the treatment meted out on people causing far less disruption but protesting about the “wrong thing” ie freedom from government tyranny.
Just try having a peaceful demonstration to protest mass immigration and see what happens. A hate crime.
Or you can have several peaceful demonstrations against Lockdown, mandatory mask wearing, etcetera etcetera and just be ignored.
Our big local refinery has a High Court injunction in place against these spoiled brats.
Anyway it will take them some time to walk here, or cycle, or whatever eco-friendly means of transport they may choose to employ.
XR is just more subversion imo.
XR have government approval, that’s obvious.
Approval from Carrie Antionette, and that’s all that counts
XR and its various bizarre re-brandings are clearly an establishment tool.
Almost the whole country behind you . . . . except all of those in Westminster, Whitehall and the teaching profession.
They should be deported to an Islamic country, accompanied by an announcement they’re gay….
Surely they are’ tolerated’ by our own Government and funded by Billionaire donors?
This guy who is working for the banking cartels and orchestrating ER and all the rest of this divisive nonsense would be a good start. The scammers Johnson, father and son, are nothing but traitors who are deceiving, betraying and screwing the British people on a monumental and outrageous scale.Look at the state of them. Why do we put up with this crap from these vile people.

I think we need to realise that as with the US, the UK is fully penetrated and being directed by the private banking cartels, being brought down via Soviet style infiltration and destruction. The City of London FFS! Its right here. This is what is going on, these are the people who are doing it. People like DOminic Raab are their latest reps, sent to destroy our world on a promise of fortune and favour. They are now so out of control that it is imperative that people become political. We vote these scumbag traitors out and we vote ourselves in. Simple as that. Fuck these traitors and criminals destroying our lives trying to turn us into slaves.
Amazing insight into this here:.

”Vote”? You really think we’d be allowed to vote them out?
”If voting made a difference they wouldn’t let us do it.”
Anyway – Dominion vote-counting machines have already proved their worth.
Most are funded by Government through our taxes. We are paying for our own misery and destruction. NGOs are anything but. It’s time people circumvented Government and created new ways of working, travelling etc. We must stop the brainwashing of those that have plenty of time on their hands.
Get Justin Trudeau to sort them out! ….and leave Canadians alone.
Another well funded “grassroots” organization appears in an Anglosphere country. Curious.
What others are on your list?
Extinction Rebellion and BLM spring to mind.
Same cast, same executive producer, slightly different costumes.
Not enough car chases though.
Probably most of the ‘woke’ movement in all its forms and guises too.
Narcissistic bastards. Complete and utter scum.
Whilst this country’s people are already suffering with energy poverty and sky high fuel costs. A lot of people, who actually have to drive places to earn a living and pay into this bankrupt system, are already getting hammered. These mentally ill wasters, having a day out with their flags, making matters worse, for everybody. This makes me absolutely furious.
And yet, what chance of this disgraceful government, who is on the same side as the idiots, actually defending law and order, and our way of life?
I agree. I think we need to do a better job emphasizing the selfishness of their acts, not their supposed noble aims. Condemn their actions and contrast them with the ordinary person doing their best in challenging circumstances as you suggest.
There’s nothing selfish about their behaviour, they’re demanding altruism and trying to enforce it.
A master of the ironic.
No, just understanding of the nature of altruism, communism, fascism and national socialism.
I would say, it is one thing to protest. But the blocking of access to hospitals requires a robust response to send a very clear message. The kind of response that requires a visit to A&E if they don’t take the hint.
I’m confident the subsequent investigation could be roundly ignored by most of us. Lessons learned and all that.
Maybe that visit to A & E should be required to be made without the use of oil. I figure that leaves the option of walking or riding a horse if one is available (even bicycles use oil, so they are out). See how they like that.
Walking. Or, rather, limping as the case may be.
No horses, they have shoes made of steel which require oil in manufacture. Sorry they’ll have to walk.
Just look at their awful, depressing ‘flags’. What the hell are their symbols supposed to represent, other than hucksterism? These people represent nothing of substance.
Moderately repurposed swastikas as far as I can tell. Moved a few lines, but definitely the same set of runes. Achtung, baby!
Just think, the swastika looks ‘prettier’ than the bollocks the climatemongers are offering. Wrap you swede round that.
I dunno, perhaps the climatemongers are trying to depress us. Perhaps they are trying to depress themselves. Surely they need motivation, or demotivation, as it were, to stay ‘enthusiastic’.
No, they are not trying to depress themselves. Their actions are classic displacement. No rational person would endorse stopping oil; we would regress to a medieval-like society.
These people are already depressed. Life’s losers unable to manage the existential angst that they don’t really matter. Has it all been for nothing? etc etc
I don’t disagree with you. You misunderstand. I can see the ambiguity in my words. I am not disputing that these nutcases are already depressed. That is surely a given. Perhaps I should have said, ‘Perhaps they are trying to further depress themselves,’ as in perhaps they looking to justify their own depression.
Pardon me for the ambiguity. Needless to say, I utterly agree with you.
I think that is it. Find some outlet for the frustration of a life not well lived. Or, for the younger ones, a salve for their fear of a competitive world.
Quite how their solution will help with any of that is anyone’s guess. But then again we live in a world where men can get surgically castrated and then congratulated for their bravery
I fear you miss the deeper angle. As a Christian, the answer is clear. These lunatics are trying to find meaning in a world devoid of God. Granted, there may be professing Christians among them, but these will be few and far between, and mostly if not all will be apostate Christians.
I don’t necessarily disagree. The decline of Christianity has left a God-sized hole in many people’s lives.
Indeed. We see it everywhere, including this forum, with ugly bags of mostly water whinging about their ‘rights’, oblivious to the fact that, on an atheist ontology, they have no rights! Astonishing.
As I already wrote once in the past: I think that man is a religious animal and doing away with the God of a sophisticated, philosophical religion (like Christianity) doesn’t change that. Hence, the fear of the unknown which begets gods gets channeled into something else. The first deities of mankind where weather gods due the weather being the potentially as dangerous as advantageous unknown on this planet, with people desiring both protection from and influence on the weather and both supposed to be enabled (to some degree) by religious rites.
Turns out the modern, atheistic climate anxious have effectively degenerated into a seriously atavistic version of that which is presumably close to the beginning of religion in the stone age: Their weather god is no longer a powerful but principally human being open to reason and persuasion and capable of compassion but it’s an inexplainable, irrational and extremely powerful beast god which will kill all human life on earth unless continuously placated by performing the right kind of rites, especially, continuous self-denigration and prostration: The very idea that man could be the master of his own destiny and activley shape his future is believed to be a preposterous sin with ultimatively lethal outcome.
Please be ‘Christian’ and accept the presence of other faiths. If not accept that you are simply promoting one dogma over another.
I totally agree that these people lack faith in anything other than an agenda set out form then by manipulating NWO cartels.
1. Why the quotation marks around ‘Christian’?
2. Of course I accept the presence of other faiths. I’d have to be mentally challenged not to notice and accept this undeniable reality.
Do you think I am unaware of the existence of other faiths, or that I’m aware but intolerant of other faiths?
Yes, I absolutely promote one dogma or set of dogmas over others. Are you saying there are no true dogmas?
Be careful how you answer that last question.
Their “bow-tie” / double axe head symbol always reminds me of HSBC’s corporate logo. Presumably both have some occultic / symbolic payload.
This sort of stuff used to be all over the net but doing a quick search didn’t instantly bring up the answer…
Another on-message, astroturf group protesting on behalf of the the elites.
Starts to look like more state-sponsored terrorism against the average person.
Let’s hope the local elections send a clear message to Fat Zero and his band of equally useless, globalist grifters.
Useful idiots, the lot of them.
Idiots.
Easter coming up and we have fuel shortages and chaos at airports all it would seem with the tacit approval of the powers that be. The official message seems to be; do not travel this Easter, just sit at home and make jolly Easter bonnets out of re-cycled Christmas cards and think yourselves lucky you are not being shelled………….yet!
We are being played for a ship of fools, I must admit if I lived in France I would be voting for Marine le Pen, I have no idea what her policies are? but she seems to annoy the hell out of everyone else, which at the moment seems to me to be a good enough reason to vote for anyone.
If we lived in France we’d be burning tyres. Can you imagine how crazy that would make these people? Lol
When people do not integrate in society and cause disturbances of the peace and material hardship towards others, they belong in prison. All of these people are not exercising any sort of legal right to protest. Considering we are living in such difficult times, with everything becoming more and more expensive, the last thing we need are literal terrorists making our lives even harder.
That’s what the punishment of exile was often for. Used to great effect by the Greeks if I recall.
It was also a punishment meted out under the old Irish Brehon laws. Some postulate that a certain well-known Irish demographic have their origins in those who were exiled.
There will soon be no “society” left for them to ‘integrate in’ – that’s the whole idea!
Are you still a stranger to the ‘ Great Reset ‘- you do know they are all in on it?
Smash to pieces so Johnson can “Build Back Better”?
Johnson is just the puppet, The anti-human megalomaniacs behind the Great Reset are those who see themselves as those who should Build Back Better. Better for them, of course, but not for thee or me. Whether or not they succeed remains to be seen.
Thank god 2 out of 3 are open. They want us to DEMAND that these protests are stopped, that means all protest, even peaceful, BILL going through soon. There are already laws to stop the chaos being caused now, vandalism etc, but they want this, to push the BILL through.
Always an agenda, always an ulterior motive, and ALWAYS at the expense of the public.
I see the logic. Tacitly encourage obviously selfish protests out of sync with ordinary people, then use the disgust to discourage scrutiny of a bill that will make legitimate protests more difficult to pull off. Clever.
Some info…
The XR symbol represents an hourglass. It’s a rotation of the dagaz rune, meaning “day” and representing the dawn of light as one epoch gives way to the next.
Now take a look at the symbol for The Exchange, based in Stroud, Gloucestershire.
That’s a triquetra. It’s also the symbol of the Steinerite bank called Triodos.
Then look at the address that Roger Hallam and Gail Bradbrook, two leading figures in XR, give for themselves in official filings for a company called “Compassionate Revolution”.
The idea about the “fifth extinction” is part of a belief system in which “epochs” come to an end when the population have lost their way and the “root race of the next epoch” has started rising. That’s what these people see themselves as part of. That’s what they mean when they involve themselves in stuff such as “Transition Towns”.
Apparently there is now a group called “Doctors for Extinction Rebellion” with members in Britain and…can anyone guess?…yes, that’s right…Switzerland.
One of them is Richard Horton, editor-in-chief of the Lancet. See how high this goes?
Are any lawyers reading this? Aren’t they breaking the law by using the red cross symbol? I thought it was protected under both English and international law.
Well, these people have a common purpose. YouknowhatImsayin
Yes. That sinister fifth-column organisation has been busy paving the way for this lunacy.
Here’s an impressive orga chart of networked secret societies and other affiliations – on steroids!
https://archive.org/details/ChartAccompanyingTheSocialistNetworkNestaHWebster/mode/1up
– and that was just the left side of the political spectrum LOL!
The Red Cross is a protected insignia under international law and as far as I am aware is owned by the committee of the International Red Cross.
Beginning of a deep exposure of corruption in Tulsa USA. Corruption of the local institutions such as education by nefarious actors, with scholar and thinker Julianne Romanello laying it out dropping so many nuggets of information. She is very impressive, forming a working project with Brendon O Connell who opens the clip with a very insightful commentary and summing up of the world we are seeing unravel in real time. Excellent work here

Our disruption will not stop until the fossil fuel economy comes to an end
The idea that the fossil fuel economy could be ended on short notice by people, who – with vocal support of the UN (a UN secretary reportedly said continued use of North Sea oil and gas would be morally and economically mad) – make lifes of ordinary Londoners miserable, is breathtakingly idiotic. Hence, this is obviously just an attempt to blackmail the UK government into spending more money on things the UN approves of despite this is demonstrably harmful to the population of the UK.
Diesen Wasserkopf von sich vollständig verselbständigt habender, internationaler Bürokratie müßte man mal einschlagen.
(Roughly This hydrocephalus – idiomatic in German – of out-of-control international bureaucracy should be kicked in)
I wonder when people will wake up and realize we are at war with globalists, and they have specifically targeted the countries with a bothersome history of being preoccupied with individual liberty. We are quite an inconvenience to their plans.
Indeed Vaxtastic and our own PM is one of those we are at war with in his submission to globalist policies.
On Friday, I drove to High Wycombe from Buckingham (just try doing this by public transport) for an Hospital appointment for a contact lens check up.
On my return I needed to fill up with diesel. There was none to be had. And there is STILL none to be had.
Another appointment has been scheduled for Wednesday 13 April at 11:15. Unless I can get some diesel I am left with four options, none of which are particularly attractive:
I am certain that I am far from alone in experiencing this massive inconvenience.
Buy a second hand petrol car with 12 months MOT for a few hundred pounds, use it for a few weeks, and sell it on again when done.
Not a bad idea that. I hadn’t thought of that one!
Any friends in your church or elsewhere? When I had loads of hospital appointments a few years ago there was no shortage of people happy to take me to whereever.
Still not a mention of the petrol problems on the news this morning.
You mean pandering to the unicorn rainbow brigade didn’t help?! I’m shocked!
Perhaps next time if we pander harder and longer they’ll like that more
I once read the XR website to try and figure out their agenda, but found it impossible to discern what they are even for. It is literally waffle. Essentially seems to say: “join our movement if you want to feel good about yourself…” Like some fruity, spiritual dance class mixed with creative writing for people on strong medication. Whoever is bankrolling them had the right idea – a herd of essentially mindless, useful idiots, some of whom will glue themselves to things, and all willing to dress up to make that special impression for the media, whose cameras are always present and rolling. Not co-ordinated at all, of course.
They literally look like a crowd of NPCs. There are maybe half-a-dozen faces there, repeated. It’s like masks-off at the end of a week long Klan rally where nobody has showered.
This is a terror organisation, and it should be treated as such by the courts. No more revolving door: 6 months inside, and then upwards from there.
How about death by brutal torture and hanging?
Maybe a bit much. Might elicit sympathy. What about a year working at an oil refinery
A one year apprenticeship in a deep, dark coal mine would be a start.
Ten years hard labour more like. Breaking rocks is the level they’d regress us all to, so them first.
There are already laws on the books to deal with this. The police are failing to do their jobs. Because of police failure the government will introduce draconian restrictions and further infringements on our rights. Do not fall for it. The fault lies entirely with the police, who no longer exist to uphold the law.
They changed that. They are there to create “social cohesion”, whatever that means. Hitchens is good on that.
Hitchens is good on pretty much everything.
Mainly the virtue signalling myopic upper-middle class who want to close down the oil industry and industrialise the countryside with solar and wind – more subsidies for the landed gentry, paid for by the ordinary working and middle classes. We have a PM who is not interested in energy security for the nation – advised by some very wealthy, and well known land-owning individuals.
Where did all Boris’s water canons go?
They are only for use on those the establishment doesn’t like.
That would be people like us then.
This ‘crisis’ suits Johnson and Co’s anti-car (ie anti-personal transport) agenda, thus they’ll act lightly and late against these criminals.
Time for Johnson to stop fighting his proxy war in Ukraine and step down from government.
Time for Johnson to F O.
The planet!
Police told to stand down as usual? “Orders from the top” is it?
They really are serious about destroying this country aren’t they?
This is what happened when our cowardly and gullible Parliament hands perpetual “Emergency Powers” to do what he pleases to a clownish, narcissist maverick who wants to be ‘King of the World ‘and takes all his orders from Davos!
Hose the feckers down with petrol.
What a bunch of absolute fuckwit pawns.
If they lock themselves to pipes leave them there, who cares.
Blocking vital transport links, well Boris knows where the water cannon are stored. Get them out and wash them off the street.
It’s clear these fools are tolerated and the police just stand and watch.
Why aren’t these eco loons being arrested and prosecuted with heavy fines or even jail time for organisers / persistent offenders? Presumably the loon in No. 10 and his co-conspirators see them as supporting his zany net zero policies.
How come this handful of eXtremely Righteous muppets get all the coverage when tge freedom marches last year in central London with crowds vastly larger garnered barely a whisper in the Corporate media? XR can only be useful idiots for the power elite.
I wonder if any of these twats are going to use any form of petrol-driven vehicle in the next day or two… I think it’s quite likely that they are.
Isn’t it strange how the Government takes such a softly, softly approach to these Eco Terrorists. You could be forgiven for thinking they are doing what the Eco Loons in Government want.
All planned and controlled by Soros and the Globalists. They want us broken, miserable and slaves to their ideology.
If the official police are unable to deal with this nonsense I’d have thought it’s time for a little citizen’s policing as per the XR caused chaos. How many men would it take to remove these imbeciles on a daily basis until they get fed up and go home.
Must say I’m rather fed up with XR. They are playing into the hands of the globalist agenda – destroy the economy, disrupt supply, jack up prices etc. I wonder where they think all their stuff comes from and how it got there and how they got to the oil terminals in the first place. I would have more respect for them if they rode horses, grew all their own veg and powered their homes with wind or micro-hydro but the chances are they don’t. They are just disrupting an economy that is trying to get back to some sort of functioning and it’s the small to medium sized businesses that struggle the most. The capitalist system is not ideal in any sense but we have to transition off it in a manageable way, we are not going to be successful with this shock treatment. They want to p*ss off the sleeping masses and wake them up but this is not the way.
Who is paying these eco warriors? You would think they would be a bit more concerned about the dangerous experimental biologicals wiping out huge swathes of people. Guess not. Paid actors?
I’m tempted to highlight a Z in the extinction rebellion symbol
If only the police use the same force against these terrorists as they used against people protesting against lockdowns!!!
No coincidence that all the ‘colleges’ are on their Easter break at the moment. These loons need to be arrested en-masse as they start to protest and locked up until term-time re-starts, then taken to court and the proverbial book thrown at them.
Perhaps it’s in situations like this that police tactics like those used in Ottawa and Victoria would be excusable. These are hardly harmless demonstrators – they are causing REAL harm.
They don’t need to – they just need a set of bolt-cutters and something to remove superglue at best, plus a load of Police vans to transport the ‘protesters’ to the local Nick.
If all they do is lock themselves to pipes, that won’t stop any fuel flowing. I doubt if they’d be so stupid as to turn any valve (not easy) to try and shut off flow, given the consequences might be very dire for them and the area if they caused an explosion (remember Buncefield).
If they chain (etc) themselves to the gate, then it should just take minutes to remove them. Why the Police just don’t do this is beyond me – do they sympathise? If so, they need replacing.
Imagine how they all got there and how all their clothes and banners were made.
Idiots. But you have to question why now and why are they allowed to be like this? Answer: it isn’t due to ‘freedom’.
This is what the powers that be want, disharmony.
These brainless idiot puppets are being paid by jewish networks and their bankers. Note how they always have all the new gear, posters, tchirts, banners, etc, etc… This is all part of the communist green agenda which seeks to destroy industry in the west..
Maurice Strong, founder of the UN Environment Programme:
– ” Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”
Paul Ehrlich, Professor of Population Studies:
– ” A massive campaign must be launched to de-develop the United States. De- development means bringing our economic system into line with the realities of ecology and the world resource situation.”
Michael Oppenheimer, Environmental Defence Fund:
– ” The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States. We can’t let other countries have the same number of cars, the amount of industrialization, we have in the US. We have to stop these Third World countries right where they are.”
But many people have discerned the real motives of this agenda:
Professor Richard S Lindzen, speech criticized by politicians and activists who claim “the science is settled”, and demand “unprecedented changes in all aspects of society”:
– ” an implausible conjecture backed by false evidence, repeated incessantly, has become ‘knowledge ,’ used to promote the overturn of industrial civilization.”
Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change, let slip during a February 2015 press conference in Brussels that:
– “ The U.N. ‘s real purpose in pushing climate hysteria is to end capitalism throughout the world. This is the first time in human history that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally changing [getting rid of] the economic development model that has reigned since the Industrial Revolution…[she called for a] centralized transformation that is going to make the life of everyone on the planet very different.”
Ernesto Araújo, Brazilian foreign minister of Bolssonaro government, in his blog:
– “ This dogma has been used to justify increasing the regulatory power of states over the economy and the power of international institutions on the nation states and their populations, as well as to stifle economic growth in democratic capitalist countries and to promote the growth of China…the center-left Workers [party] in Brazil is criminalizing sex and reproduction, saying that all heterosexual intercourse is rape and every baby is a risk to the planet as it will increase carbon emissions.”
William Norman Grigg:
– “… the environmental movement is animated by a desire to regiment human society rather than ‘save the planet’. The movement’s economic outlook is socialist, its political ambitions are totalitarian, and its religious affinities are unmistakably pagan.”
Berit Kjos, “A Common Core for a Global Community”:
– “ Today’s emphasis on ‘saving the earth’ will surely involve mental manipulation and moral degradation. The earth-centered ‘new’ spirituality will fit well in a culture of promiscuity, propaganda , and paganism. And the seductions of the occult will speed the rising hostility towards biblical truth and values. Everything must change! Make no mistake about it, in a world where the ‘global collective’ determines the outcomes, Christianity will not be tolerated.”
