Another good summary of the Act:

Moonbat’s preoccupation with rewilding is highly relevant, because it seems clear to me that the sorts of protesters the bill is aimed at - the eco loons who glue themselves to roads or chuck soup at priceless works of art - are precisely the sorts of people George is instinctively supportive of and would like to see continuing in the same vein.
All I’m hearing, in protest against this bill is self-serving demands that those who think they’ve found a means of holding society to ransom in pursuit of their political goals, should be allowed to carry on, and the rest of us should just let them get on with it, or, worse, abandon our own convictions and give in to their blackmail.
Well I’m sorry but no. If people want to bring the M25 to a halt, cause millions in lost business and prevent tens of thousands of people from going about their business, then I’m more than happy for them to spend a few weeks in jail in recompense. If nothing else, it will weed out the dilettantes who think this lunacy is an attractive way of virtue signalling to their mates.
(Edit) And references to Russia, Iran and Egypt are simply more contemptible left-wing dog whistling, and nonsensical to anyone who is actually familiar with what human rights abuses in those countries actually look like.
