A man that rapes a woman gets less time in jail. Pathetic.

[wgcdsjyg]

Why close the bridge? Leave the fools hanging up there since they like it so much.

[kingvill]

Eco terrorism must be stopped in its tracks

[daffyddduck]

Why on earths didn’t they leave them up there and open the road up, carry on as usual

If the penalty for peaceful protest is 3 years what should be the penalty for doing your own research as an oil company, knowing the impact and then funding denial of climate change? Exxon knew.

[robertjsmith]

They didn’t force the Police to close the road.

A good result but terrorists like these two should be indicted for terrorism and expose them to much longer sentences.

3 years for peaceful protest is punitive and authoritarianism yet Channel 4 refuses to call it out. Channel 4 is part of the problem.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Where are their signs saying 'the end is nigh...repent!'

[michaelstapelberg]

if you love your kids leave them a living planet

[jakkuwolfinsomnia]

Good, but why do they get a harsher sentence than a rapist?

[folkeholmberg]

I am so very thankful for those people, risking their lives for expressing what we all should say ❤️

[sapete]

I guess they have plenty of time until their release to ponder their next protest, and that will probably be a very good indication of how committed they are to the “cause”.

[guff]

"Marcus" and "Morgan"? I blame the parent, for giving their child such totally stupid names

[jordan]

No one told the police to close the road and cause havoc. They should have ignored them.

[rickyjulian]

Waste of taxpayers money..
Gonna cost £120, 000 and £140, 000.

[Ben-ksbm]

Brilliant sentence. This made me happy

[robertjsmith]

3 years is disgusting, we are living under a oligarchy

[pstanyer]

The police didn't have to shut the road as usual over reacted
