“Fine, I suppose, if you want to draw attention to a cause and stir up a bunch of ill will. But these people with Just Stop Oil who protest by taking a hammer and smashing the glass on a Diego Velázquez painting at the National Gallery in London, in a way they’re gutless.
“If you want to just stop oil, why not stop oil?”
