The penalty for desecrating a grave is a maximum of 10 years in prison. The sentence depends on the value of the damage caused: Under £5,000: The maximum sentence is a fine of up to £2,500 and/or up to 3 months in prison. Over £5,000: The maximum sentence is 10 years in prison. The law and sentence is plain, please police do them.
A church is irrelevant, but then again the church is the most guilty of all wrongs, including child abuse and no particular church. So if you want to go that route ? huh. Even so, its a matter for the CPS...stop laughing... but 10 years no remission might preserve some treasured monuments and relics.... even those of agnostics (Darwin) who debunked the god creation fairy tale.
They are leftist atheists who dont give a toss about anything but their woke warped ideals. Nothing is sacred to them. These two look old enough to be hippies from the 60s and still behave like they did in their teens. A stint in jail won't cure them as they will be martyrs to their ilk, they have never had a proper day's work in their lives, professional protesters. Vegan, guardian readers with an electric bike.
Professional woke vegan leftists have never had a proper job in their lives, they look like they were hippies in the 60s and never worked. Professional protesters need to get a life
Because you’d end up getting locked up or getting a criminal record that could ruin your life. If people knew the state had their back everyone would jump in.
clothes made from oil, jewelry made with oil, glasses made with oil, and I could go on. These are the biggest hypocrites in the world. The fact no one stopped them makes it worst.
Exactly, told to stand down because JSO is a Soros-funded group of Useless Idiots whose only real function is to manufacture public consent against protests. We are supposed to have an angry reaction because we are being manipulated. Face it, if The Establishment didn't want us to feel this way about them, we wouldn't be ALLOWED to criticise them.
The security guard cannot do anything,the Police would arrest him,the SIA would suspend him and most likely not able to work for a year. The state hates private security and ties their hands and make them extremely vulnerable to physical harm and prosecution.
How low can they get - arrest, charge criminal damage , no bail, send to that judge that sentences immediately- 5 years minimum - will it happen - doubt it
As a pensioner I loathe these protesters too, all I can think is they’ve lost the fuel payment (like me) and want to go to prison where it’s warm and they get fed or else they just haven’t grown up . Also like Julia there is no way I could stand by and watch
Last time I checked farmers were feeding us and not defacing anyone's graves, or stopping ambulances getting to hospitals, have not damaged priceless art work or glued themselves to a motorway. I think your idea of moral equivalency is slightly ascue.
Di Bligh is pathetic. This woman should never have been chief executive at Reading borough council because of thinking like this. Please give this woman a £10000 fine and not prison.
They should be happy temperature is going up to pre Little Ice Age levels. CO2 has gone up regardless of any measures taken but the benefits are longer growing seasons, better crop yields, as per the UN. Fossil fuels are essential to everyday life for all the products that are made as well as fuel for homes and industry. The PM wants AI, which will need a lot of consistent energy. To keep jobs here energy needs to be more economical in cost than now. Now that the temperature is 1.5 degrees above 19th century levels, when Britain was freezing in winter, what new arbitrary target will they pick to say the end of the world is nigh?
1.5 degrees! There's at least 20 degrees difference between the temperature indoors, and the temperature outside. Going between the two hasn't killed me yet.
The stop oil is an organisation, who recruit, train and pay these people to protest....and often you will see they are older retired or unemployed young who they recruit.......
What tangible thing in their lives have these people done to combat climate change? Have they gone to university and studied meteorology/environmental sciences? Have they gone to other countries like India, China, the middle east and the US, who are mostly responsible for the climate crisis, to try and enact change? Have they got involved in politics to ensure environmental/climate friendly policies are passed? All very doubtful. Basically they have done nothing apart from go to B&Q and buy spray paint. THAT won't change anything and is having the opposite effect on the UK public opinion. As Konstantin Kisin said, 'if the UK sank into the sea tomorrow and ceased to exist, this would have ZERO effect on climate change'. I think that says it all. I advise you to watch his Oxford Union address.
Defacing a grave is a crime that is covered by the Criminal Damage Act 1971 and the Burial Act 1857. It is also known as grave desecration. The maximum sentence is 10 years in prison. Graffiti in a Church or religious site (Stonehenge) may (and should) be classed as a hate crime and punished accordingly.
How disrespectful, they are not helping their cause. What gets me, is the pdople who stand around and dont attempt to stop them. I would be so ashamed if they were my parents desecrating someones grave.
Maybe we shouldn't give these clowns the coverage on tv media etc... If they don't get the air time maybe they'd stop as they wouldn't be achieving anything. They disgust me.
Darwin earned that plaque through genius and service to humanity. The two who vandalised it have earned nothing but contempt for their reprehensible behaviour.
Had they done something similarly bad to a Mosque they would all be in prison so fast they would not have time to stand up... They are vile (like so many we have in this Country) and push a lie...
Not too long ago archeologists found evidence of a wine making industry at Hadrian's Wall. It was warm enough to grow grapes in Scotland and the world carried on as it always had
10 yrs in jail
25 yrs
Minimum, no early release.
💯
20, plus a full day in the stocks, then given the birch prior to sentencing ....
@@michaelaxford7257if these oldies last that long 😂😂
I bet they would be immediately jailed if they defaced a mosque.
The most vile activists of all time.
Even more vile than the 'socialist' activists that make up our government?
Hmmm nah the pro Palestinian caucus are vile.
And if a sane member of the public had tried to stop them, they would have been charged with assault.
I fear that at some stage that will happen and the MSM will automatically praise the desecrators.

Its up to the woke c p s not the cops
Chalk paint? Seems like there's no fine or sentence.
Probably wouldn't cost much to clean it but the invoice should say £5,001 and then get them thrown into jail for 10 years.
@PeterPeteIt's the mindless intention behind it, not the " eco friendly" paint! Your attitude stinks
give them 10 years
How dare they do this in a Church????
How dare they do this ANYWHERE?
Imagine doing that in a mosque ??????They would never see the light of day!

If you can get 3 years for writing on Facebook, writing on a grave has to be at least double that
Outraging public decency...
Arrest. Charge. Imprisoned
Take their fat public sector pension away.
And there benefits..
Did they work for the public sector?
Who else would employ them
@martinlove7073 they could have worked down pit or steelworks. And having a late midlife crisis or early dementia who knows.
@chrisbuster6947 it's not a big fat pension by the way. Unless your a director and above
25 years in prison is too little
They need to be in prison.
Why do they get away with it? I agree with Julia’s opinion. Well said Julia! 👏
And all those people just stood and watched and did NOTHING!
Because you’d end up getting locked up or getting a criminal record that could ruin your life. If people knew the state had their back everyone would jump in.
... and filmed.
Starmer probably loves em...
Arrest!
its not free speech, thats desecration...absolute disgrace...5 yrs minimum
clothes made from oil, jewelry made with oil, glasses made with oil, and I could go on. These are the biggest hypocrites in the world. The fact no one stopped them makes it worst.
If we suddenly stopped using all oil products, these loonies would be the first to cry about the dystopia that would cause.
Jean's need hundreds of gallons of water for production.
Their shoes are literally just oil. As is all rubber.
@@MysteriousStranger50I thought rubber came from trees?
Probably the paint they sprayed too.
Broken Britain, well England.. About time, we took a stand. People are fed up!
Yep fuckin sick of it England really needs to act now
During Roman times the climate was 2 to 3 degrees hotter than today,
These people are clowns
Radicalised Eco Zealots need to be held accountable.
Spot on.
-67°in Siberia at the mo.
They need jailing for 5 years
At least!
Not longer enough in my view
Give these two a prison sentence of a MINIMUM of 10 years! At their age they will never know freedom again!
Security guard just standing there should be sacked 😮 or was he told to stand down as per usual 🤫
Exactly, told to stand down because JSO is a Soros-funded group of Useless Idiots whose only real function is to manufacture public consent against protests. We are supposed to have an angry reaction because we are being manipulated. Face it, if The Establishment didn't want us to feel this way about them, we wouldn't be ALLOWED to criticise them.
I don't think churches have security guards.
The security guard cannot do anything,the Police would arrest him,the SIA would suspend him and most likely not able to work for a year. The state hates private security and ties their hands and make them extremely vulnerable to physical harm and prosecution.
He's an enabler, one of National Trusts DEI socialist picks... I say fine him aswell for not doing his job, or simply sack it..
No, scratch that, make it clean it...
They deserve the Darwin Award for stupidity! 🤬
How low can they get - arrest, charge criminal damage , no bail, send to that judge that sentences immediately- 5 years minimum - will it happen - doubt it
Why aren’t they removed and charged? We’ve only got ourselves to blame for tolerating this nonsense.
Because they are supporting the government message.
Why aren't these people not prosecuted and get jail sentences
They have lived their lives using oil products for over 60 years but they dont want us young ones to live 😔
They don't want anyone to live.
@@robertjones3613exactly
Exactly, and if we stopped oil tomorrow the whole world would grind to a halt!!
They are the generation that defined tupperware. And plastic .

Disgraceful
Full ten years in prison that will stop it that's criminal damage
If this happened in a church, charge them with a hate crime.
12 years.
How far are these people goin to go 🤷🏻♀️ these are extremest and need stopping
Lets see if Starmer sends them to jail for this, absolutely disgraceful!!! 🤬
Crime is crime. End of!
More pressure on the Met Police to do THEIR EFFING JOB .
Don’t hold your breath
No one is listening to them it's just criminal damage
Heavier prison sentences😮
Well that's the climate fixed then.
I agree with you JHB. Why didn't security or anyone intervene? There is something wrong with our way of life and our remaining values.
We don`t punish people any more.
Yes we do but only for hurty words.
How dare you, I'm from Shrewsbury the birth place of Charles Darwin,,If a couple of teenagers did that they would be arrested straight away.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Disgraceful behavior

They should be fast track to court and prosecuted
How bloody disgusting
should be ashamed of themselves and what are they trying to prove all this just stop oil is going no where
No body intervened to disrupt this vandalising stunt from church volunteers etc to passers by. I am dismayed.
Please send this climate criminal gang to jail
Just Stop Oil's original aim was to stop new drilling licences in the North Sea, now they've won that battle they're emboldened to go further.
What is happening to are Country. 💔😢😢😢
*our
Blame judges and far left governments for not cracking down on this form vandalism and traffic terrorism
This is a CRIME and must be punished as the crime it is. These are CRIMINALS.
And everyone stands round them videoing it instead of making a citizens arrest for desecrating the graves
You must pity these men , after all they are going through the Menopause. 😂😂😂😂
Prison time and a large fine.
How disrespectful!
Prison for both.

In the distant past, there was the ice-age... Then it warmed up quite considerably - Who are they blaming for that ?
It’s nuts,Earth will decide what temperature it needs to be.
Maturity is often more absurd than youth and here is a proof of that!
1.5 degrees! There's at least 20 degrees difference between the temperature indoors, and the temperature outside. Going between the two hasn't killed me yet.

you know youre not dealing with the smartest person in the room when vandalising memorials is 'raises awareness'
Prison for 1.5 years minimum.
You do mean 15 years?
Utterly revolting.Are they now including defiling graves as part of their "protest"?
Starmer said Criminal acts should be dealt with the courts swiftly and to the full letter of the law . We’ll see .
Disgusting behaviour, shame on them!
Possibly Labour Councillors with too much time on their hand...... they'll be patted on their back and sent on their merry way...bless em...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Make tar & feathering great again.
Bring back the stocks!
Isnt this some form of terrorism?
No it's just annoying
It's probably criminal damage so should incur charges
For level of filth they are up there with the gangs currently being talked about.
They are so proud of themselves.

They want to be as detestable as they can get....they have moved away from the message to just feeding their own appaulling mania now
Check if they have a driving licence and if they do ban them.
A lot of these eco-terrorists don't own cars.
It's surprising that with that level of stupidity they're able to operate a rattle can.
What a disgusting bunch !!
They should be in prison for a long time , no ifs or buts .
Why do these people all look the same?
Desecrating a grave - absolutely disgusting...
These are the very people who would scream blue murder if someone vandalised a grave belonging to a member of their family.
Prison now they have desecrated a grave

It's disgusting there was no need to do that it's a grave. I hope they get a prison sentence and not let off
I wonder how they got down there…walked …. doubt it…. traveled in something that is used by oil?
Why dont they go and protest about oil in the middle east .
And one of them is sitting on a gravestone!
This is disgusting. Make an example of them if the last ones didnt
Kier wants to jump on these wastes of space and apply the full force of law on them.

Where is the swift justice!!! Arrested, court case this week, jail by the end of the week!
The public just stand and watch with three phones.
Just because evolution dealt you a bad hand, that's no excuse to vandalise Darwin's grave!
It’s the spiteful of the ordinary against beauty and tradition
