Do you think the tactics of Extinction Rebellion are justified?Article 11 of the Human Rights Act gives the right to protest - peacefully. The protesters are achieving their goal of raising awareness. However, where protesters actions are obstructing public transport, such as climbing on top of trains and causing any danger, these actions may not be classed as peaceful and the police then have the right to step in? The ultimate extinction of the planet is surely important enough for drastic action and individuals as well as groups, including Government (whichever party is in power), need to work towards solutions - quickly.
