Many supporters of those convicted for engaging in, or inciting the riots, have complained that we have a Two Tier Justice system. The thing is that many in the environmental movement agree.
Earlier this year, some environmental protesters were convicted under laws brought in by the Conservatives, and sentenced to lengthy jail terms. Many considered the terms to be harsh at the time.
It will be interesting to see if those in favour of what many term the Farage Riots will call for the Just Stop Oil protesters to be released along with those locked up for assault, incitement, looting and arson.
