Climate change activists chained themselves to the wrong building in the City of London after failing to realise the fossil fuel company they wanted to disrupt had moved address last year.
And yes, there is a punchline:
The group of 200 protesters instead brought chaos to the entrance of a building which houses the offices of a leading renewable energy company.
The protestors’ chanted demands include “No borders, no nations, no gas power stations.”
Update, via the comments:
Readers are invited to marvel at the patchwork of seemingly incompatible concerns, and to ponder how, if at all, any of the protestors’ professed objectives could actually be met without nations, with borders, to implement them. Do they imagine that some borderless, undifferentiated and continually shifting mass of human beings with no common identity or common bond could function at all for any length of time, let alone in ways that they, or we, might find congenial?
