The Metropolitan Police have charged chief treehugger Greta Thunberg with a public order offence after her arrest in London yesterday. She is among a gaggle of 26 protesters whacked with a charge following their demo outside the InterContinental Hotel, with the Met saying she failed to comply with a condition on public assemblies. She has been released on bail and will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on 15th November…
Greta Thunberg has just been arrested again, having been detained by police officers in Central London. Joining a Fossil Free protest, she blocked the entrance to the InterContinental Hotel where an Energy Intelligence Forum conference was being held. Apparently her protest against wind farms in Norway wasn’t enough…
Greta Thunberg has reportedly been fined 2,500 kronor, roughly £187, for disobeying the police during a green protest outside an oil port last month. She was amongst a group of tree huggers who blocked tankers in Malmö, claiming it was “a matter of life and death” to waste everyone’s time for a few hours. Under Swedish law, the maximum sentence for disobeying police orders is six months in the clink. Greta was let off with a slap on the wrist…
20-year old climate crusader Greta Thunberg could face a six-month jail sentence or heavy fine later this month, after being charged in Sweden for “disobeying the police” during a green protest outside an oil port. Thunberg was part of the “Reclaim the Future” gang who blocked tankers in Malmö last month, claiming it was “a matter of life and death” that they delayed traffic for a few hours to save the planet…
The Swedish Prosecution Authority said:
“The prosecutor has filed charges against a young woman who on June 19 this year participated in a climate demonstration which, according to the prosecution, caused disruption to traffic in Malmö. The woman has refused to obey the police command to leave the scene.”
How’s that plan to overthrow capitalism going?
Having already been “detained” at the opening of a coal mine, Greta Thunberg has now shown up in Norway to campaign against… wind turbines. Demonstrating alongside dozens of fellow eco-warriors at the entrance of Norway’s energy department, the 19-year old climate crusader is fighting the Norwegian government over an on-shore wind farm built on land originally used by Sami reindeer herders:
“The Norwegian government cannot close its eyes any more to the human rights violations that are taking place. The colonisation of Sami people must stop… Indigenous rights, human rights, must go hand-in-hand with climate protection and climate action. That can’t happen at the expense of some people. Then it is not climate justice.”
Apparently the Norwegians are now responsible for “green colonialism”…
Greta did not look absolutely devastated by her arrest yesterday. What a relief it must’ve been when police finally released her last night, having spent a good ten seconds in the clink for bravely protesting the building of a coal mine at a time of skyrocketing energy prices. She seemed to enjoy herself…
