Just to confirm @Embattle - that "like" regarding Tories criminalising peaceful protest - that's not, you know, "you like these new laws" is it?
I figured as much tbh. Peaceful protest is, by definition, Nonviolent Resistance - so your very definition of peaceful protest is fucked up m8.a lot of people won't consider it peaceful protest
The only effective means of protest is money, which we don't have anyway, so nothing changed because we still get bugger allI figured as much tbh. Peaceful protest is, by definition, Nonviolent Resistance - so your very definition of peaceful protest is fucked up m8.

I'm pretty sure Mandela et al weren't rich. Or the Suffragettes.
Either way it's by the by. The science was done a long time ago - only violent action regularly gets results - so I'm hoping these protest groups start ratchetting up the pressure - if we're going to burn our planet up, lets at least be interesting about it, show that some people get it.

Lawmakers and officials in a number of countries have called for stablecoins to be regulated.
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen cited the TerraUSD collapse, in a Senate committee meeting on Tuesday, to ask again for robust regulation.
"It simply illustrates that this is a rapidly growing product and that there are risks to financial stability and we need a framework that's appropriate," she said.
A UK Treasury report last month also laid out plans to regulate stablecoins, which it predicted would become a ""widespread means of payment".
