ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED BY:



An enraged motorist has been filmed assaulting a Just Stop Oil protester in
London, after a “slow walk” protest blocking traffic reportedly caused a
pregnant woman to crash her car.

Video of the incident posted online by the controversial group showed a man in a
red hat punching a protester and knocking him to the ground before kicking him
in the head.

The man is seen furiously arguing with another person who steps in to intervene,
before returning to a damaged silver Mercedes with his distressed female
companion.

The car appears to have been struck on the rear driver’s side by a van while
attempting to change lanes.

Just Stop Oil said one of its supporters was “assaulted while demanding no new
oil and gas.”

“Daniel was assaulted while marching this morning and remained nonviolent
throughout,” the group wrote. “Disruption is difficult, but it’s necessary.”

The group subsequently posted an interview with the man nursing the back of his
head with a packet of frozen peas.

Daniel “would rather the police spent their time investigating the CEOs and
politicians pushing for more oil and gas than chasing down the man that
assaulted him”, Just Stop Oil wrote.

“Physically I’m feeling a bit better,” he said in the video.

“If anything I feel a bit sad … because I haven’t said anything to the police, I
don’t plan to, but I’m afraid the police might go ahead and you know, go after
this man. I feel no ill sentiment or ill will against him. It’s a difficult
situation for anyone to be in and it’s bound to create frustration. I could tell
that with everything that was happening, he’d just been in a car accident as
well, he was very stressed.”

Daniel said if the police should go “after the people at the top in the
government or at the heads of fossil fuel companies who are killing us, really,
they’re killing future generations and they’re funding this toxic media space
that creates a certain violent world that we’re all living in.”

“If the police spent any amount of time going after them instead of people like
the man from before I’d be much happier,” he said.

Just Stop Oil said one of its supporters was “assaulted while demanding no new
oil and gas.”Twitter/JustStop_Oil

London’s Metropolitan Police has been contacted for comment.

Commenting on the incident, Sky News host Piers Morgan lashed out at the
protesters as “complete prats.”

“Where exactly is the law? Where were the police,” Morgan said. “I can
sympathize for the anger someone feels when they’re trying to go about their day
to get to a hospital appointment.”

“Daniel was assaulted while marching this morning and remained nonviolent
throughout,” Just Stop Oil wrote. “Disruption is difficult, but it’s
necessary.”Twitter/JustStop_Oil

Some have previously accused the police of siding with the protesters against
taxpayers.

In May, a furious motorist was detained and handcuffed by officers after shoving
an activist to the ground on Blackfriars Bridge.

“You are f**king assaulting people,” one officer says during the struggle caught
on video.

But another passer-by tells the officers to “give the guy a break, he’s just
trying to get to work.”

Metropolitan Police later said the man had been detained but not arrested.

“We completely understand the frustration and anger of London‘s communities when
protesters walk slowly on the roads,” police said.

“We urge people not to intervene and to let police deal with the situation who,
if not already there, will arrive promptly.”

Climate activists from groups including Just Stop Oil have sparked widespread
public backlash across Europe in recent months for their highly disruptive
eco-protests, blocking traffic, defacing priceless artwork, and interrupting
sporting events.

Tensions with motorists have frequently boiled over, with several incidents of
protesters being dragged off the road and manhandled by fed-up members of the
public going viral.

On Monday, another motorist was seen tussling with Just Stop Oil members, as
around 200 people joined in marches to stop traffic around London in 14
different locations.

The man is seen furiously arguing with another person who steps in to intervene.

One frustrated man, who was traveling down Marylebone Road near Westminster, was
at his wits end as he started dragging protesters.

Police said they had arrested 21 people for taking part in the chaos.

They were arrested for breaching Section 12 of the updated Public Order Act,
which was recently strengthened to crack down on protesters disrupting traffic.

Sky News host Piers Morgan called the protesters “complete
prats.”Twitter/JustStop_Oil

Earlier this week, a woman in Germany was filmed dragging a climate protester
off the road by the hair.

The activists from Letzte Generation — “The Last Generation” — were blocking a
road in Bottrop.

The activist was lightly injured in the altercation, police in Recklinghausen
said.

Police said they were looking into videos and photos of the incident to
determine if criminal proceedings were necessary against those who dragged the
protesters off the road.

They also said the climate activists were taken into custody.

Some members of the German group have taken to gluing their hands to the road so
they can’t be physically removed.
