It was bound to happen. If you took a poll, I’d bet a good chunk of the people being inconvenienced by the climate cult protests will say they support Doing Something about ‘climate change’ in theory, but, as soon as it causes a problem in their own lives they’re not so supportive

EXCLUSIVE: ‘I worked in the fossil fuel industry, you’re talking c**p!’: Passer-by confronts Just Stop Oil protesters after ranting man hurls female activist to the floor and smashes phone as eco demos turn violent

A furious passer-by confronted Just Stop Oil protesters today after a ranting man hurled a female activist to the ground and smashed another’s phone.

Police have shut down at least three marches by the demonstrators who targeted London’s streets for the fifth day this week.

One passer-by who said he had worked in the fossil fuel industry told a protester: ‘You’re talking c**p… so f*** off.’

In another protest almost 20 Just Stop Oil demonstrators wearing hi-vis vests and holding orange banners flocked to Mansell Street in east London.

Footage filmed from a window above the street showed the moment a passer-by took matters into his own hands and started snatching the protesters’ banners.

They’re just so passionate about stopping oil, despite just about everything they’re wearing being made with petroleum, along with the signs

A member of the public has lost it today with Just Stop Oil, so many have been warning about this happening.. it was only a matter of time before someone snapped.

These demonstrations are rather counter-productive, and are driving people away. So, yeah, keep doing it!

Meanwhile, uber climate cult celebrity chef

(Washinton Free Beacon) After the owners of the mall where Andrés is set to open the restaurant threatened to sue the city, Palo Alto administrators will allow Andrés’s Mediterranean restaurant Zaytinya to use natural gas lines, despite a new law this year that bans them in construction.

The restaurant relies on “traditional cooking methods that require gas appliances to achieve its signature, complex flavors,” said Anna Shimko, a lawyer representing the group that owns the shopping center where Andrés leased space for the project.

The lawyer argued the building’s plans were approved in 2019, years before the gas ban was imposed. She added that some of the appliances the restaurant staff needs “do not have electrically powered equivalents.” Shimko added that if the ban is enforced, “Zaytinya will likely choose not to locate within the city.”

The city in a Tuesday statement called the decision a “one-off” exception and a “unique” situation.

Exemption, eh? I’m thinking there were be a lot of suits if people do not get their exemption

I’d like to congratulate @chefjoseandres on getting a gas stove policy exemption for his high end restaurant pic.twitter.com/MHEiXNULKK
