Just Stop Oil Ltd appears to have funds of £10 billion! (See link below).
Is this for real or is it some sort of jape or hoax or what?

“Just Stop Oil” should mean stop the US war machine, and in particular the US military, which is by far the biggest polluter on the planet and the biggest user of oil, again by far.
The fact that Just Stop Oil and all the rest never demand this, or even approach it, and this very small number of protestors all look suspiciously from the security services, perhaps indicate how phoney it all is.
Real protestors (and there’s huge numbers of them at the moment, worldwide, protesting about the cost of living and various wars) get the shite kicked out of them by robocops and get the full force of corrupt law thrown at them, because such protestors are a real threat to centres of power.
You have stolen my future
No, little demons like Greta (totally PR stage managed) are stealing our hard fought for freedoms and civil liberties.

Ten billion shares are only genuinely worth £10 b if they can each be sold for £1. It’s a nice try by the Company Secretary but unless and until any of those shares change hands: it’s a pipe dream. But you never know: there might be a bank somewhere, or a gov dept, stupid enough, or corrupt enough, to reach into the kitty.
The ‘real’ organisation is AstroTurf through and through. Underwritten by a member of the Getty family iirc, and the protestors are invariably chinless wonders on a break from their internship at a hedge fund and/or pony club Jocastas. The State will be clamping down on This Sort Of Thing any day now, then modestly taking a bow.

Absolutely, Rob.
I’ve never heard any of these recently formed outfits: XR, BLM, JSO make a peep about war - for that reason alone it seems obvious that they are outright phonies.

…although Greta T has recently been suggesting that western capitalism is to blame and should be dismantled. Merely code I think for Progressive Market-led Economics, or whatever vile euphemism is used to rebrand the Same Old Same Old. We must tackle the Climate Emergency so ten year old cars with a dent in the back must be scrapped. Here’s your fiver.
From my cold, dead hands.
