    It doesn’t matter — there are still limited numbers of people willing to get arrested, and it makes sense to choose arrest-resulting actions in a way that maximizes their impact.

      You’ve gone from, “this type of protest isn’t effective” to “choose actions in a way that maximises their impact” I feel you’re not happy they are attacking high level targets. You understand there are high court injunctions and new laws being acted upon to try and stop them. These people are giving their lives to this cause. Join them.

        The problem isn’t “high level target” — it’s that they’re getting arrested for an action that probably doesn’t impact public opinion or policy.

          Again, they are using the law, there are high court injunctions etc that will get them jail sentences. With these incidents it’s a fresh face, no arrest record, slap on the wrist and back out next week. Do you get it now?

            Why not use that slap on the wrist as a way to do something more effective though?
