These protestors are not typically on the dole. The profile of the protesters is more along the lines of little rich kids and retired librarians etc

The protests appear to step up during school/ Uni holiday times.

This. Most are from a middle class background. The younger ones are probably financially dependent on their parents.

 

You could take their student loans and grants away from them though.

I actually do think that we should end reliance on oil and, indeed, on gas. Not for the reasons that "Just Stop Oil" promote but because both underpin pretty nasty regimes such as Russia and Saudi Arabia. We have our own resources to burn to generate electricity and to burn to produce gas. It is called coal. Unfortunately it's never going to happen sufficient to end that reliance on imported oil and imported gas and since Thatcher privatised electricity no privatised electric company will invest in nuclear. So we are right royally kippered.

This. We have signed a legally binding obligation to net zero by a definite date. The USA, China, India and the Russians haven’t; they haven’t even signed up to net zero, so in future we will import all our energy needs from them. Sorted. 👍
