The group has never had any terrorism charges or any convictions showing violent intent.
The arrest total may jump up this Sunday unless police and ministers see sense and choose to lift the ban.
We will not comply with unjust laws.

OUR CORE WORK CONTINUES
Jurors have an absolute right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience. This 1670 legal principle is stated in a stone plaque inside the Old Bailey.
Supporters in Oxford are today informing the public of that fact.

Meanwhile, inside court, one of many @JustStop_Oil trials is ongoing years after their nonviolent actions made headlines.
Juries are regularly giving “not guilty” verdicts in these cases where people were charged for slowly walking in the road, often for just a few minutes…

These trials form part of the thorn in the side of politicians and corporate funders who are desperate to silence peaceful protest while maintaining the illusion of “democracy”.
We must defend our right to protest against government failures.

BREAKING: NOT GUILTY FOR SLOW MARCHING
7 Just Stop Oil supporters were found not guilty today by a majority jury verdict. This was the fourth acquittal this year for the 2023 slow marches.
In 2023 Sam Griffiths was remanded for 21 days for his action on Cromwell Road which lasted 16 minutes.
Following the verdict Jamie Russell, 52, from Shrewsbury said:
"In our evidence we included a report by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries which states that if we hit 2C by 2050 we will see two billion deaths. The CPS and the judge allowed this to go into 'Agreed Facts' – meaning it was not in dispute. When faced with mass death on this scale, what else can ordinary people do but enter into civil resistance?’"
