Christopher Hehir seems to want to swell the ranks of Just Stop Oil. I wonder if he's proud that the UN has commented on his extremism? I thought judges were supposed to stay out of politics, but the sentences seem motivated by politics more than justice.

I think we need to acknowledge more widely the fantasist-realist axis in politics. We need to be able to put policies, politicians and parties on this axis so that we can make conscious choices about supporting populist movements.
No-one is immune. We are all fantasists to some extent, but some people and ideas are in a danger zone.

Given Musk's predictions of civil war in the UK, a prediction that is designed, in my opinion, to encourage violence, I think X should be banned in the UK for a month. Who would vote for a petition to that effect?
Musk is a non-state political actor. He should be sanctioned when he interferes in UK politics and promotes civil disorder.
I will be writing to my MP. I encourage others to do the same. He is a risk to the rule of law and democracy in the UK.

This is quite a deviation from Monbiot's usual concerns. I agree with what he says. If Trump wins the presidential election, I expect Europe to be at war within five years.
I am a pacifist by inclination. But I also want to protect my children's freedom of belief, politics and sexuality. These would all be under threat under a Russian-installed British dictator.
I have absolutely no doubt that Farage would happily be that dictator.
