Re: Guardian: Police criticised over raid on Glasgow squat housing Cop26 activists 📂 Archived Message Posted by johnlilburne on November 9, 2021, 1:05 am, in reply to "Guardian: Police criticised over raid on Glasgow squat housing Cop26 activists" The activists squatted in the building after it emerged that hundreds of Cop26 delegates, including indigenous leaders, were unable to find accommodation for the summit. There were unconfirmed reports of some indigenous activists sleeping rough. “Baile Hoose has provided a safe home and meals for hundreds of activists during this summit,” a spokesperson said. “There have been a lot of people who have travelled here from all over the world and the country, and quite often people from marginalised communities are not getting their voices heard.” Meanwhile: Hundreds of fossil fuel lobbyists flooding COP26 climate talks If the fossil fuel lobby were a country delegation at COP it would be the largest with 503 delegates – two dozen more than the largest country delegation. https://www.globalwitness.org/en/press-releases/hundreds-fossil-fuel-lobbyists-flooding-cop26-climate-talks/ I don't suppose they would have had trouble finding accommodation.
