Occasional Series — Just Stop Oil
To everyone’s relief JSO has called time on its childish and puerile antics. It was always striking (to me at least) that the only diversity on show amongst its adherents was the colour of some members’ hair, which is not yet to my knowledge a protected characteristic. JSO claims to have kept 4.4bn barrels of oil in the ground. Well, yes and no. Disrupting supply from the UK simply increases production elsewhere, transferring UK wealth to countries with somewhat less robust measures against autocracy, encouraging greater human rights’ abuses, and increases net carbon emissions as oil and gas is shipped around the globe in dirty diesel freighters. If that “success” makes its members happy, then I am pleased they are showing their true colours to the world.
