Author and commentator Douglas Murray says UK police are worried about losing public sympathy if they were seen to be cracking down too hard on 'Just Stop Oil' protestors.
“The point is with the Just Stop Oil people is they do have a kind of protection,” Mr Murray told Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan.
“Because climate change has become such an obsession of so many people in Britain, you might lose public sympathy for the police if the police were seen to be cracking down too hard on climate protesters.”
