Eco-protesters are outside London’s High Court ahead of an appeal from Just Stop Oil activists, as the granddaughter of the Suffragettes leader hit out at the ”heavy-handed” jail sentences. Sixteen jailed activists are challenging the sentences imposed for a series of stunts and protests. Just Stop Oil’s leader, Roger Hallam, is among those appealing, after he was jailed for five years for his involvement in a conspiracy to cause mass gridlock on the M25 [freeway]. Also part of the appeal is Phoebe Plummer, a committed JSO activist who was imprisoned for two years for throwing a can of Heinz tomato...

A LEADER of climate protesters Extinction Rebellion was last night exposed as a diesel-driving eco-hypocrite who buys imported food. Gail Bradbrook was shopped by a member of the public who saw her stocking up on Waitrose goods that had travelled thousands of air miles.

This morning, two activists pasted a photograph of a Palestinian mother and child over the protective glass of Pablo Picasso’s 1901 painting Motherhood (La Maternité) at the National Gallery in London, in a bid for attention to the dangers faced by families in Gaza. After pasting the image, Jai Halai, a 23-year-old employee at the National Health Service, and Monday-Malachi Rosenfeld, a 21-year-old student, poured red paint on the gallery floor before their arrest. A video posted to the Youth Demand X page captures Rosenfeld seated in front of the faux-blood splatter, saying to a crowd of onlookers, “All of...

It didn’t take long for the eco-zealots to strike again. Just minutes after JustStopOil activists Phoebe Plummer and Anna Holland were jailed for throwing Heinz tomato soup over Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers,” a trio of JSO protesters have again targeted the artist’s work at the National Gallery in London. How very tiresome… The climate protest group tweeted out a video of the group’s latest stunt, urging Brits to “support people in resistance.” The clip of the art attack, which was recorded this afternoon, shows passers-by remonstrating with the JSO activists. Shouting at a room of livid art enthusiasts, the protesters raged:...

After years of disruption and vandalism, consequences have finally arrived for "Just Stop Oil" protesters. I'm not just talking about some motorists throwing them out of the street either, as satisfying as that usually is. This time, actual prison sentences were handed down. In October 2022, two women entered the National Gallery in London and threw soup onto a famous Van Gogh painting. They then glued themselves to the wall while ranting about climate change. Video of the incident went viral at the time. Phoebe Plummer, 23, and Anna Holland, 22, were arrested for their deeds, though it wasn't immediately...

Just Stop Oil’s stunts are partly funded by a campaign organisation run by Hillary Clinton, US financial disclosures reveal. A group founded by Mrs Clinton from the ashes of her failed presidential bid has donated $500,000 (£391,500) in the last three years to the protest group’s California-based financiers. American voters who have bought tote bags decorated with pictures of Mrs Clinton or sweatshirts promoting abortion rights have inadvertently funded disruption in the UK. Just Stop Oil’s largest financial backer is a controversial Californian non-profit, the Climate Emergency Fund (CEF), which pays for stunts by environmental groups across the world, including...

A pair of climate protesters was arrested Wednesday after allegedly spraying the Stonehenge monument in England with orange paint, according to local authorities. The protesters, from the group Just Stop Oil, sprayed the monument with orange paint Wednesday, one day ahead of the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, the environmental activist group said in a statement on the social platform X. The two individuals were “demanding the incoming government sign up to a legally binding treaty to phase out fossil fuels by 2030,” Just Stop Oil said. Wiltshire Police told The Associated Press...

Environmental protesters sprayed paint on Britain’s Stonehenge on Wednesday, with orange marks covering some of the stones of the prehistoric megalithic structure on the eve of the summer solstice celebrations. Two people have been arrested on suspicion of damaging the ancient monument, police said in a statement. “This is extremely upsetting and our curators are investigating the extent of the damage,” English Heritage, the charity that manages Stonehenge, said on X. Stonehenge remains open, it added. The monument, one of Britain’s most visited tourist spots, also holds spiritual significance and attracts thousands of revellers, spiritualists and tourists during the summer...

Ever since Hamas’s Oct. 7 terrorist attack and Israel’s counteroffensive, prominent climate activist groups such as Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil, and Fridays for Future have led anti-Israel protests, attempting to align the Palestinian cause with the global climate cause. But this messaging is deeply flawed, and as a 24-year-old Jewish climate commentator, I fear it could seriously divide and impede the climate movement. My heart breaks for the thousands of innocent Gazans and Israelis who have been killed and the hundreds of Israeli hostages still in captivity. I believe both sides’ governments stoked tensions, failed their constituents, and need...

Freedom of speech is in danger in the United Kingdom. A year ago, we ran a post about a woman who was arrested after admitting she was praying silently across the street from an abortion clinic. No signs, no bullhorn, nothing. Praying silently. They arrested her again this October for the same crime. In the meantime, you have climate alarmists destroying artwork and gluing themselves to the street. A very concerned NBC News reports that "scores" of people in Britain have been arrested "for walking slowly down the street." For walking slowly down the street, scores of people have been...

FIRST ON FOX: A fledgling dark money climate group poured millions of dollars last year into disruptive activist protests that blocked busy highways and destroyed famous artwork in cities across the world, according to tax filings obtained by Fox News Digital. The Beverly Hills, California-based, Climate Emergency Fund (CEF) - which has been funded in large part by Hollywood actors and producers since it was founded in 2019 - raised $6.1 million in 2022, a 165% increase from the $2.3 million it raised in 2021, the tax filings showed. The sharp increase in funding led to CEF sending $5 million...

The UK government was warned Tuesday by the U.N. that handing out long jail sentences to climate protesters could stifle public displays of dissent. The Just Stop Oil protesters in question caused traffic gridlock after scaling the Dartford Crossing Bridge for almost 40 hours in October last year, as Breitbart News reported. They were later accused of having “blood on their hands” after two women died in car crashes after being diverted from the bridge after the anti-fossil fuel activists had shut it down. Eco-extremists in Britain have a history of blocking motorways, junctions, and city centre intersections. The BBC...

@JustStop_Oil ⛓️ ELLA WARD, 20, IMPRISONED FOR MARCHING 🚷 Yet another young person has been imprisoned after marching against new oil and gas licences.

Just Stop Oil protestors tried to prevent people boarding the Bibby Stockholm barge in Portland. A number of people were being taken on board the vessel at the Dorset port more than two months after it was evacuated following the discovery of Legionella bacteria in the water supply. As the eco-protesters tried to halt the progress of the bus, the driver refused to stop, making those sitting on the ground have to move out of the way very quickly.

Just Stop Oil's bizarre slow-march story took an unexpected twist this morning - as lookalike counter-protesters infiltrated their ranks and foiled one of their demonstrations. Opposing activists - known only as Just Stop P***ing Everyone Off - stopped them in London in a military-style operation. The shadowy group camouflaged themselves in JSO's traditional orange T-shirts to blend in with the do-gooders. And as the climate change clowns began disrupting the traffic in Elephant and Castle, their new nemeses struck. Creating a ring of human bodies, JSPEO circled them and kettled them out of the street and onto the pavement. .....

Environmental protest groups have been targeting art history's greatest treasures to raise awareness about climate change. Climate activists turned up the heat this year, decrying the global environmental crisis by targeting internationally renowned art museums’ greatest treasures—and leading many onlookers to wonder how their actions actually connect with the greater good. Just last week, protesters from Just Stop Oil glued themselves to Vermeer’s iconic Girl With a Pearl Earring in the latest of their ongoing art demonstrations, previously focused on the U.K. The same group blasted a Rolex store in London with orange paint less than 24 hours later. In...

Eco-fanatics caused outrage yesterday by kidnapping three lambs from a royal farm and attacking the Chelsea Flower Show. They were warned their stunts, which raised animal welfare fears and caused costly damage, would destroy any public sympathy they had. The incidents are the latest in a series that includes a paint attack on the World Snooker Championships and a bid to sabotage the Grand National (horse race). Parliament might now have to bring in stronger punishments, according to Tory veteran Peter Bone. The MP said: 'When a very, very tiny minority is ruining the lives of other people, action needs...
