It seems unlikely that the sentences handed out to Just Stop Oil protestors will be reduced after the High Court appeal yesterday, but what the demonstrations outside the Court suggested was that rather than just punishing these protesters, the judges may have produced an emerging narrative of sacrifice & martyrdom that may actually prove a helpful organising device for JSO.
Much will depend on how the Appeal plays out (we'll likely know in March).
