Insulate Britain

I had a summer job shifting 20k bags of rockwool.

I'd rather the world burned than do that again. 

Similarly, had a summer job with a building contractor and spent a chunk of it insulating lofts as part of a council house upgrade programme.  Absolutely horrific.  Inhumane of these Insulate Britain types to want more people to suffer in this way.

Punishment is only one part of why people are sent to prison.  Protection of the public is another (you might be able to make a case that jailing these people is protecting the public from their nuisance.  It probably isn't unless you jailed everyone from IB) but that tends to be from violence rather than inconvenience.  The third reason is to rehabilitate them.
I'm not defending their actions but jailing them serves no real purpose as punishment alone doesn't work in the thinking of our criminal justice system.
It's also a deterrent for others.

As and when Big Liz Windsor finally shuffles off the coil; I anticipate the funeral will require several road closures in London. What if someone has to get to hospital, or is on their way to a job interview? I propose everyone involved in the ceremony be sentenced to jail. 

It's the only way they'll learn.

Correct but don’t forget those going to the vet with a sick puppy 🐶 too.

Jail? Like a bloody holiday camp.

Done in at these faux-hardmen on the internet bawling their eyes out at the traffic being stopped.

I'm wondering if a certain "no one should ever be inconvenienced" poster feels the same when his colleagues are flattening wedding parties all over the world

I wouldn't call gluing yourself to the carriageway to block it peacefully protesting.  You're causing a disturbance and therefore not peaceful.

Clearly you don't know what the word 'peaceful' means then.

Actually it isn't.

It's to serve as a deterrent.

And in this case it might well work for some of these protesters.

The question is whether prison is appropriate for non-violence direct action protesting.

And the answer to that question is - of course it bloody isn't.

If you want to live in a country where that is the done thing then pack your bags for China or Saudia Arabia with our blessings.

I hate it when you make a sensible post
