Eleven people have been arrested in a midnight raid at London Action Resource Centre (LARC) in Whitechapel, for conspiracy to commit a public nuisance.

According to one witness, more than 40 officers were involved in the action, which found nothing to confiscate. Five people have been released under investigation as of this afternoon, while six others remained in custody, according to the Met.

Update, 15/4: All detainees have been released under investigation, LARC people say some damage was caused to internal doors.

LARC, a radical meeting space which has been used by progressive groups for more than 20 years, appears to have been the victim of a police crackdown operation against green group Just Stop Oil.

The group has mounted a series of highly successful direct actions over the last few weeks alongside Extinction Rebellion as part of its campaign to stop further extraction of fossil fuels.

Talking to Freedom, a Just Stop Oil rep said: “The raid on LARC demonstrates that the Just Stop Oil coalition is effective and is now impacting on the supply of oil to the economy.

The police can raid offices, arrest suspected organisers and pick up teenagers tanker surfing on the top of trucks but we can not stop. Because our government is betraying us, betraying future generations and right now we must stand in solidarity with life itself.”

Political raids on legitimately owned buildings are unusual, and today’s action follows on from a public panic by senior politicians and right media who have accused the group of “guerrilla tactics” after it blockaded oil depots, saying they “wouldn’t tolerate” the protests..

Anyone who has been affected or is a witness can contact the Activist Court Aid Brigade for support.

In case you are not aware, hydrogen as a source of energy has become controversial. It is promoted as a clean replacement for fossil fuels, without greenhouse gases at the tailpipe.

Even so, producing and storing hydrogen is energy-consuming, questioning its potential as a green solution.

Somehow Hydrogen is attractive to developers, but we were pointing out 30 yeares ago that you need to ultra compress it in hugely strong and expensive tanks, even then it will ALWAYS leak and the process may release more CO2 than you save .

(Totally neglected is NH3, ammonia where the nitrogen N stores the hydrogen H3 at minimum pressure. Buses ran on NH3 100 years ago, and nowadays it can be produced by electrolysis on green electricity, and it’s CO2 free oif course. The downside of NH3 is it’s toxic and it can produce NO when burned, which is WORSE than CO2 for the climate, though they say this can be avoided. see; https://co2freefuelexistsnow.wordpress.com/ )

-A new study shows that hydrogen has another big problem, as it becomes itself a greenhouse gas when released into the atmosphere. Long term, it might be 11 times worse than CO2 for the climate.

Light-duty vehicles have passed the phase when hydrogen can be a viable solution. Battery-electric vehicles have already proved better and gained traction with consumers.

With polls suggesting a dead heat between Macron and Le Pen it seems like the Yellow Vests, who abhor both candidates may hold the balance of victory.

Strangely Le Pen is promising to reject most sanctions supporting the nazi inspired regime in Ukraine, which could upset the hysterical European drive to war and economic suicide to punish Russia.

Would you prefer 5 years under a total autocrat elitist bent on sacrificing the poor to the WEF and new world order? Or would you prefer to risk letting in a National Front fascist promising social protection?

Le Pen-Macron: finally, a vote where the people can decide if it’s war or not

From 1792 to 1815 there were not one but seven “Coalition Wars” which involved most of Europe. It’s an era which should be properly termed the “7 European Wars Against the French Revolution”.

Think the average European was thrilled about gutting their own economies – for 23 years! – in order to get involved in what was truly a civil war in a faraway land?

Even in England, the only nation which participated in every coalition fighting for counter-revolution, there were popular protests to finally end belligerence, and they occurred long before the start of France’s “Continental Blockade” against England’s intractable monarchists.

Objections of unjust meddling in the sovereign affairs of another nation were even finally raised in England’s oligarchical parliament. It was all to no avail, because back then foreign policy was entirely decided in the royal courts of Europe. War went on, regardless of popular objections.

It’s not any different today.
