Outrage over a bit of #cornstarch on #Stonehenge (which has already washed away by the rain), but the outrage is completely misdirected.

Just Stop Oil’s protest appears to have highlighted a collective fear of losing revered heritage, yet the conversation about it has overlooked the main instigator.

Just stop oil already!
