Watch: Just Stop Oil new recruits taught how to protest in seven-hour training ‘camp’

De-escalation, how to deadweight, and listening. These are just some of the topics and skills taught in a seven-hour Just Stop Oil training ‘camp’.

Sky News journalist Rachael Venables was invited inside a JSO training session, held in London, as the group revealed how they train new protesters.

A total of 16 JSO protesters were arrested during a demonstration outside the prime minister’s London home in Kensington on Wednesday evening (29 November).
