Well Dale Vince, you know that multimillionaire "green energy" company owner who has bankrolled JSO and their fight for "stopping oil", yesterday announced that he would no longer bankroll JSO.

He said: 'I believe that further protests and the disruption that comes with them are pointless. I would go further and say they would be counterproductive'

Isn't it crazy that many many people have been saying that JSO protests are counterproductive and here we have the man himself finally accepting it.

Dale will move on and fund 'Just Vote', an organisation who are aiming at getting young people to vote for "green" parties, well Labour actually, but you know.

Are we about to see Momentum 2.0?

Good to see the funding stop, and common sense kick in before someone got seriously hurt, it was only a matter of time.

That's a pretty selective quote, what else did he say?

Of course it's a selective quote because I've been saying the same thing on here for 2 years.

There's a whole statement should you wish to go read it and then debate.

JSO has the say problem extinction rebellion does.. in that everyone agrees with the concept and has sympathy for the cause… but the way they have gone about it has basically lost them public support

Extinction rebellion kinda died with the Canning Town tube incident

From reading the article it's seems he sees supporting JSO is pointless because of the current government, so he's focusing on ways of getting them out.

Sorry - I do not understand your use of the English language.

"The man thay made money from government grants"

What do you actually mean?"

As in his company was set up to make money via government grants for green energy. It was actually quite unsuccessful, and was propped up by grants.

Yep. Can't say I'm surprised. Not that I advocate it, before everyone starts crying.
