Five arrested after climate protest at Ineos oil refinery in Scotland

Five people have been arrested after environmental activists staged a day of resistance at the Ineos oil refinery near Falkirk. Four people climbed on to the roof of the Ineos gas power station at Grangemouth and held up a banner on Saturday afternoon. Earlier, about 200 people marched to the fence of the Ineos plant, which powers the oil refinery, from a climate camp approximately a mile away. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/15/five-arrested-after-climate-protest-at-ineos-oil-refinery-in-scotland

    What happened to the right to picket? This is unacceptable. Especially when all they are doing is fight for us to live in a better planet

              This is so sad. No one should be arrested for demanding climate justice

                  We all have right to pressure governments and corporations to change their policies and business practices.
