I think the pandemic has been one of the big factors why people have not protested in the way we've seen previously like eg the Iraq war. Climate change protest was significant, but not as big as some previous huge demos. Patel's attempts to suppress criticism and the right to protest have IMO not been fully tested yet. That will come as more n more people become pissed off with their lot and the role of a totally uncaring/unscrupulous govt that really needs to be brought down in a General Election. IMO that aint gonna happen and demonstrations ought to ensue sooner or later. Also note the world (and lotsa folk in this country!) will soon know what a lying cretin Bodgit truly is when every word uttered by Tories at COP26 will be proven to be false. IMO this is a huge issue that has been politically "tucked away". IT AINT GONNA GO AWAY AND I GENUINELY BELIEVE MILLIONS N MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL BE MOBILISED IN THE REALISATION THAT NOT ENOUGH IS BEING DONE. It's already happening in parts of Europe where many people are becoming more interested in the fight to avert climate change compared with their view of electing governments that are not delivering on their promises while the war in Ukraine is cynically being used as a "smokescreen".
