Targeting the homes of politicians is the wrong way to protest - and Leanne Wood should recognise that

Rhun should have a serious word get a grip she’s not a politician she is entitle to her opinions the same as you or I doesn’t matter if you personally don’t agree

How many homes and lives lost through the actions of this man, can we be permitted to ask ?

Compare this to the angry harrassment of our First minister at his home, I am fine with this clever photo opportunity style of peaceful protest. Protest has to be bold to be seen by a mainstream press that controls what people here to protect criminals like Sunak. Yes the hate mail and evil Express and even BBC would put a narrative on it, but would be seen for people to think hopefully.

Plaid Cymru lost its way under Wood, it became an organisation of issues, ignored Wales problems and opportunities and peddled nineteenth century politics. Her commitment to Wales is there in black and white - helping to resolve a problem in north east ENGLAND!! If Wood returns to the Senedd or indeed becomes leader again, that will be the end of Plaid Cymru. Rhun should invite her to join some fringe socialist movement - where she belongs - and take her toxicity out of Plaid Cymru.

Dafydd Wigley was leader of Plaid Cymru twice so a return for Leanne Wood would not be unprecedented. The narrative of this article may even help mobilize her supporters.

Awful woman…..a very large share of the blame for Plaids pitiful election failures is down to her and her legacy.

First the gushing admiration of Britain Remade now joining in a pile on on Leanne Wood by the author of this article.

I like Leanne Wood. She is not afraid to speak her mind and speak up for our country. I respect people like her. I really don't understand why Plaid Cymru turned on her. I hope she does come back to the Senedd.

The calls of "traitor" were made frequently by Leave supporters against Remainers and very much endorsed by the rightwing media. Tory MP David Bannerman called in parliament for Remainers to be criminalised. This is not surprising. Remove EU oversight and you can remove required scrutiny of offshore bank accounts, you can interfere with the courts, you can interfere with the election process to favour yourself, you can shut down unfavourable journalism, you can ride roughshod over an unwritten constitution, you can ignore parliament when it suits, you can make law by ministerial decree, you can break international law and you can allow sewage to wind up in rivers and beaches. What a prize! The Tories have done all this, it's their idea of a democracy in which being in power is just about benefitting themselves and, well, being in power.

Hearing a lot about various political parties either backing or smearing this activism. They're allowed their opinion like the rest of the world but were they there at the property? Are they moonlighting as police officers and have first account information from inside the interview rooms that would make their opinion mean anything other than a great excuse to sling mud? It was Greenpeace v Sunak and I side with Greenpeace on this one sorry. I don't claim to be a saint but I do believe in fairness and perspective. Previous murders of MPs can't be blamed on Greenpeace. Any future violence or terrorism towards MPs can't be blamed on Greenpeace unless of course they had direct involvement. For goodness sake, when did people become so feable that they can't comprehend the idea of ownership and being responsible for your own actions? If someone decides to go out and physically attack another person then that is because it is within them to do that and because they want to. People know the consequences and it would be all on them. No one else. No blaming mother or random protest groups disputing dispicable self-serving politicians playingaround with people's money and futures. You want to pinpoint the cause of animosity towards MPs? That's quite a task. You could start with the rise in general aggression. Should we bring Andrew Tate, GB News, Pierce Morgan and GMB into the firing line too? Or is it more logical to start with the inexcusable actions of MPs themselves? I think there are plenty of level headed, peaceful individuals who fully support this act which may have bruised Sunak's precarious little ego, but in actuality didn't harm anyone. They accomplished their mission. Sunak's opulent mansion splattered all over the news, Sunak known for not handling humiliation well is humiliated. Where was he? Oh right sunning it up in his other home in California. His policy is the work of a low down dirty weasel.

Shame that Leanne seems to have elected to cancel her prospects of resuming any representative role in politics. Now a full time "anti" good at churning out hostile stuff on Twit but rarely if ever seen putting together any kind of articulate ideas about improving the life prospects of people in Cwm Rhondda or Wales in general.

Quote.... "Ms Wood replied: “If you are angrier at me for posting my support for this action, than you are with the Tories for their fossil fuel addiction, then I’m afraid you are part of the problem.” ...and this is the kind of devisive rhetoric that we need to get away from. 'Your either with us or your with them' which puts people off their politics altogether Leanne Wood came third in the leadership campaign and lost her seat. Time to move on from her. If she were ever to return to the Plaid leadership it would be a huge gift to the unionist wing of the Labour Party, the Conservative Party and those who want chip away Welsh self-determination. The main purpose of Plaid Cymru is to campaign for an independent or fully devolved Wales & should steer away from left/right politics. We have by far the weakest devolution settlement in the UK a government in Westminster that is hostile to devolution and the possibility of being permanently lumped into a "Kingdom of EnglandandWales" within the next 20 or 30 years or so. We cannot these devisions anymore. Plaid needs to become a broadchurch more than ever.

Um no! Politicians should be held to account, they are the ones who make policies who affect peoples lives. Are we really saying that they have no responsibility because they are off the clock at certain times? That’s a ridiculous notion!!!

You're gonna nice and polite us all to death.

This article is exactly why we are all screwed, too afraid to protest even when it is dooming the planet

As far as I can see this was a well researched and planned stunt by Greempeace. The only people put at risk by it were those taking part. I am fairly confident that they would not have done it if they had found that the Sunak family’s plans had changed so that there was someone at home. I only wish that I had the energy and courage to do more to show this so-called government what I think of ghem!

Presumably Leanne thought Mark Drakeford was fair game when anti-lockdown protesters congregated outside his humble abode in Pontcanna.

"..the source of grievance was not Mr Sunak as an individual, but his actions as the head of government." I'm not convinced that the two are separate. Was Truss's incompetence not due to her deficiencies as an individual, likewise was Johnson's performance as PM not due to his dishonesty etc. "They [the public]have the imagination to know what it would feel like if it happened to them." The public also know that they are not in a position of immense power and influence or are millionaires hundreds of times over. They might empathise with this PM or not Also defining any protest actions targeting the individual as heinous attacks and so forbidden although neat and tidy ignores the reality that there is a continuum from trivial to extremely serious. Everyone will determine where they draw the line. For me the draping of 'oil black' sheets over Sunak's house was like a cartoon brought to life. It had some wit about it, was non violent, the Sunaks did not experience any threat to their persons and no property was damaged. That's very different to receiving email threats or a group congregating outside your house Greenpeace also did the Sunaks a favour by giving a wake up call to what must be a pretty incompetent local police force and the PM security detail.

This is a typical MSM obfuscation piece, let's all jump on Leanne Woods and Greenpeace, how about, just for a change we take a closer look at Sunaks disgusting energy policies and the fact that infosys, Sunaks family business has recently signed up Shell and BP in multi million pound deals, I really thought Martin Shipton and N.C was above this sort of journalism.

Why do so many commentators on here have such a problem with direct action/civil disobedience? Greenpeace have a long history of this and have often been proved right.

'Come Home to a Blackout Curtain'... This guy is a big part of the gang that screwed the UK...
