I heard about #ThisIsRigged first at the Banksy exhibition at #Goma #Glasgow, but this movement is a thing on its own, addressing the UK-wide extreme concentration of wealth that is leaving the majority impoverished and hungry. Their action in the Scottish Parliament will be difficult to dismiss by the media as something irrelevant or unimportant, but I surely hope they move towards more direct food-related actions (such as mass skip-diving, reaching out to supermarket providers, and sabotaging of harmful practices). https://bellacaledonia.org.uk/2024/02/19/this-is-rigged-in-holyrood-palace/

Unlikely to be reported by the mainstream media. We need much, much more of this kind of citizen activism.

This Is Rigged blocked the Men's Elite Race at the Cycling World Championships today and stopped the race for 50 mins to bring attention to the fact that INEOS sponsors one of the races.

"Time is of the essence and we need to act like it. Scotgov must stand up to Westminster and oppose all new oil and gas, and implement a fair transition now."

This Is Rigged sprayed Charlie's portrait at the National Portrait Gallery and glued themselves to the floor.
