A glorious mediocrity of the most bourgeois kind
Just Stop Oil eco-zealots have gone from 'harmless hippies to committing reckless acts of criminal damage' Tory policing minister Chris Philip rages after Anglican priest, 82, and retired teacher, 85, attacked the Magna Carta
A pair of elderly protestors who brazenly hammered the glass protecting the Magna Carta, before gluing themselves to the display as part of a Just Stop Oil protest, have been denounced for their 'reckless' stunt.
The enemies of all true life, out-of-date Liberals who are afraid of their own independence, the flunkeys of thought, the enemies of individuality and freedom, the decrepit advocates of deadness and rottenness! All they have to offer is senility, a glorious mediocrity of the most bourgeois kind, contemptible shallowness, a jealous equality, equality without individual dignity, equality as it’s understood by flunkeys or by the French in ‘93. And the worst of it is there are swarms of scoundrels among them, swarms of scoundrels!

I am mature enough to remember the lad from 23 Railway Cuttings proclaiming "Does Magma Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?"
But seriously though, folks, what tossers. I hope that they are made to pay for everything associated with the damage done.
And I hope that they are carried about, individually, in the biggest, most gas guzzling, security vehicles available, with similar vehicles fore and aft.
And I hope, in the modern parlance, that they are totally "doxed".
The priest has already got away with criminal damage on earlier occasions. The judge thought her actions were justified, and let her off. So I don't think we can expect any semblance of justice as the judiciary are riddled with the same type of daft old bat.
Don't separate them; leave them glues together.
The correct response to people who glue themselves to things is simply to leave them there.
After a couple of days without food or access to a lavatory, they'll be begging to be released.
There'll be a bit of cleaning to do, but hey, you can't make an omelette etc.
Oil is a source of magnificent transport fuels and of lubricants. What do these dimwits expect to replace it with?
Doonhamer - a spell at home with no electricity or gas might help them grasp what it's all about.
Sam - daft old bats is right. It isn't easy to imagine how a judge could go along with such a silly justification, but the silliness seems to be as invisible as the criminality.
DAD and Peter - I agree, leave them glued.
dearieme - they appear to have no notion of life without these essentials, but no intention of doing without them either.
