Just Stop Oil protest in Clydebank sees 31 people arrested as demo ends after three days
06.05.2022 - 11:35 / dailyrecord.co.uk
31 people have been arrested in connection with a climate protest in Clydebank, which has finally ended after three days.
Stop the Oil activists had arrived at Rothesay Dock in Clydebank just after 4am on Tuesday May 3 with police called to the scene.
The protesters arrived at the Nustar oil terminal to reportedly try to disrupt the activities and blockade any oil from leaving the site by sitting on top of pipes and on silos.
Others headed into the terminal itself.
Of the 31 people cuffed, 15 have been charged in connection with a Breach of the Peace and 16 with a contravention of Section 69 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 and Malicious Mischief.
Chief Superintendent Lynn Ratcliff said: “As a rights-based organisation, Police Scotland puts our values of integrity, fairness, respect and a commitment to upholding human rights at the heart of everything we do.
“This means that we will protect the rights of people who wish to peacefully protest or counter-protest, balanced against the rights of the wider community.”
The activists started their protests in England at the start of April but this week's protest was their first in Scotland.
The group say the government's recent energy stategy failed to provide a route to widespread insulation in Scottish homes.
