Wackjobs giving England’s legal system “exhibit A” for the prosecution
Climate protesters arrested over spraying orange paint over Stonehenge monument
Two climate protesters were arrested Wednesday for spraying orange paint on the ancient Stonehenge monument in southern England, police said.
The latest act by Just Stop Oil was quickly condemned by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as a “disgraceful act of vandalism.” Labour leader Keir Starmer, his main opponent in the election next month, called the group “pathetic” and said the damage was “outrageous.”
The incident came just a day before thousands are expected to gather at the 4,500-year-old stone circle to celebrate the summer solstice — the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
English Heritage, which manages the site, said it was “extremely upsetting” and said curators were investigating the damage. Just Stop Oil said on the social media platform X that the paint was made of cornstarch and would dissolve in the rain.
Wiltshire Police said the pair were arrested on suspicion of damaging one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
I hope they get strung up by the buster browns. At this does, even if there is no actual damage, do they think this helps their cause, just like with all the other stunts by Just Stop Oil, Extinction Rebellion, and other climate cult groups? Or, does it annoy people who might otherwise hold the same Warmist views and drive them away, causing them to tune out?
BTW, how did they get there? Did they walk or take a fossil fueled vehicle?
