Why would they want to bring down capitalism, which country do they think we should be like?

Pissing people off is the last method of getting them to stand up and do something.

China is the world's biggest polluter, with about twice the CO2 emissions of the USA, and they're not exactly capitalist. Maybe the protesters should focus on one issue at a time, unless they know what they're talking about.

[Claim : Extinction Rebellion is to "pause" the protests that have caused widespread disruption across central London for seven days.
The group said it would mark "a new phase of rebellion" to achieve "political aims".
A total of 831 people have been arrested during the climate change protests and 42 people charged.
Hundreds of officers from other forces have been sent to London to help the Metropolitan Police.
Extinction Rebellion said it hoped to negotiate with the Mayor of London and the Met over continuing its demonstrations at Old Palace Yard, Westminster, and leaving other sites.]

Agree...they are not going to win support leaving mess like that behind...they are going to be treated like travellers leaving that kind off mess behind

[Oliver_W]

Instead of wasting time with vague, undefined demands, why didn't they focus on a particular facet to fighting climate change? If they were all calling for increased reliance on nuclear power, they'd be getting behind a valid cause, and have a clear message.

[arista]

Reports say the Police Cleared the
Waterloo Bridge last night
and removed them next to Parliament.
So now they any left are at Marble Arch only.

Yes I posted the tweet
after they left Hyde Park


You would think
it would be sensible to clear up after they have left
