Climate Cult Icon Greta Thunberg Arrested at Eco-Activist Protest in London
London police also arrest Just Stop Oil co-founders in dawn raids after these eco-zealots threatened three more weeks of slow marches across the city.
The last time we checked on climate cult icon Greta Thunberg, she had just received a Doctorate in Theology from the University of Helsinki. This recognition does make sense since climate pseudoscience has many of the hallmarks of a religion.
Now the 20-year-old is leading her best life, and getting arrested in London as she participated in an eco-activist protest.
Thunberg was arrested outside the InterContinental London Park Lane hotel during the “Oily Money Out” protest organized by Fossil Free London and Greenpeace.
The demonstration was held on the first day of the Energy Intelligence Forum, a three-day gathering of major oil and gas executives, politicians, and civil society groups.
“We need direct action to take back the power from the oil elite that has gathered here today behind closed doors. Their only plan is to profit at our expense,” Nuri Syed Corser, an organizer with Fossil Free London, said in a statement.
“Arrests like these will not deter us. Our right to protest is our own, it is not given to us by the Government,” Corser added.
Before her arrest, Thunberg had her characteristic speech filled with doom, gloom, and hyperbole.
Speaking at the rally, Ms Thunberg said: “Behind these closed doors at the Oil and Money conference, spineless politicians are making deals and compromises with lobbyists from destructive industries – the fossil fuel industry.
“People all over the world are suffering and dying from the consequences of the climate crisis caused by these industries who we allow to meet with our politicians and have privileged access to.”
Dozens of protesters at the rally blocked Hamilton Place, near Park Lane. Many carried banners and pink umbrellas with eyes painted on, shouting “oily money out” and “cancel the conference”, while some lit yellow and pink smoke flares.
In related news, the leaders of Just Stop Oil were arrested by police in a raid on their homes.
Roger Hallam and Indigo Rumbelow and were arrested in separate busts after cops ‘forced entry to their homes, searched belongings and confiscated papers’, the eco group said in a statement.
Footage shared by Just Stop Oil on X (formerly Twitter) showed the moment police raided Mr Hallam’s home. Being led away by one officer, the eco-zealot gives a thumbs up and says ‘all good’ after being asked about the raid by the cameraman.
Police are seen searching through the property, using torches to check drawers, before being quizzed by a Just Stop Oil supporter about the items they are seizing.
The arrest came after Just Stop Oil announced it would carry out three more weeks of daily slow marches in London, beginning on October 30 – in a fresh blow for Londoners following months of disruptive protests by activists.
It appears that some policy-makers and officials have decided that blind hatred against a life-essential molecule and disruption of an essential industry are now luxuries that they can no longer afford to support.
Fascinating.

OK, commie, now apply that to speech, association, property, life and self defense.
You spelled Idiot wrong in the headline….
Just put her in jail for ten years before she can apply for parole. It’ll end their enthusiasm for gluing themselves to the pavement and trashing art work.
Funny. I see a lot of photos with the Klimate Karen Toonburg wearing clothing and using byproducts from oil. Synthetic fabrics, plastics, make up, modes of travel, and many others.
Perhaps when the pretend “Doctor” (bastardizing the term) can forego those things before she chooses to be a burr in the saddle of intelligent people, then we can give credence to her blathering.
Religious cult adherents, especially the climate crowd, are all tone-deaf to reality, failing to see what you point out – the obvious hypocrisy of their demented mindset.
On the plus side, I’m pretty sure she walked or rode a horse from Sweden to London.
Therein lies the proof that GT is ignorant, lying, or pushing a political agenda. (Perhaps all three.) Without petroleum products, she couldn’t do any of this. There would be no cars, trucks, airplanes, computers or TVs.
Now why was it that phrenology was supposedly discredited?
I believe it’s pubic knowledge that she’s “challenged.”
The pubic be damned.
I have a serious question, Ms. Eastman, that I’m asking in all sincerity.
Why is Thunberg worthy of coverage in LIF? Perhaps she has more reach and impact than I understand, but it sure doesn’t seem so.
A good question, and I join you in asking.

There are many times good law, and a good legal defense/prosecution depends on good science. I am blessed to be essentially the designated “Science Officer”. There are a stack of climate-crisis related court cases I do cover.
So, while your editorial suggestions are appreciated, there are many good reasons to include news related to health, the environment, science and technology as part of the comprehensive collection of news analysis we provide at Legal Insurrection.
Because the quality of life in our civilization is dependent on having civilization-worthy sources of energy…and she has significant rank in the Army Against Science that is a direct threat to our security and prosperity. That’s why.
And because sometimes we all have to recognize the stupidity of the people out there, if for no other reason that to tell ourselves not to be like them.
I look at it as a well rounded education.
Greta operates as a front for the bourgeois Bolsheviks. The real bolsheviks will Gulag-liquidate her when she’s used up.
I don’t disagree with our first statement.
To be clear, you think she has significant tank in the Army Against Science…
Is that not because some, perhaps you, elevate her with this attention?
That’s why?

Guess she was losing her fifteen minutes of scolding fame, like a Hollywood actress doing some bizarre thing to regain the limelight. Yet one can not become a victim of something they have directly caused. Thunberg is a perpetrator tool of the Left…look at that face, a joyless lost soul (thanks to her fame-seeking parents).
Still awaiting the wide-angle shots that show this arrest being jocularly staged with the “arresting” officers, like all her others.
Hey, lay off Brittany. That knife dance thing was not bizarre
Just another day that ends in Y for the little attention grabber.
Getting a DR at 20, may mean the school that awarded the degree is a Bozo school.
Her habit of skipping major periods of school must have made attaining such a degree difficult as well. Especially for an Autistic, Asperger, OCD, selective mute, as Thornberg has been diagnosed.
” At age 15, Thunberg began skipping school on 20 August 2018, vowing to remain out of school until after the national Swedish election in an attempt to influence the outcome.”
The alleged doctorate is in Theology, but one suspects she’d rather burn a Bible than read it.
I’m sure that Alfred University will do their best to compete with worthless degrees.
I keep seeing stories about her being arrested, so when is she going to start serving some jail time?
She gets confined to her limo for the duration of the trip back to the airport.
Londonistan, nothing will happen to her. They have a mayor who thinks he can tell you what you can eat.
Ms. Thunberg (excuse me, DOCTOR Thunberg) was not arrested.
She was ‘arrested’.
It’s more progressive play-acting. It’s all scripted in advance. She was booked and immediately set free. She’ll at most pay a small fine.
This is all about burnishing her street cred for the progressive types.
“…Their only plan is to profit at our expense,” Nuri Syed Corser, an organizer with Fossil Free London, said in a statement.
And with that statement Nuri Syed Corser said the quiet part out loud. The climate isn’t the issue. The issue is that there are corporations that exist to earn a profit. It is all about reaching the dream of a society where there are no economic winners. Nuri likely cannot identify a time in world history where this worked, but that is going to prevent them from seeking utopia.
Well, that coat she is wearing is made of the evil oil and I noticed one chick with a Pro Terrorist Hamas scarf so there is that.
I’m most shocked that she is still a thing.
Halfway cute little retard has a good knowledge of English. Was her father orchestrating/directing this tiny little segment of her life?
Looks like she got a Victoria’s padded halter with her birthday money.
