Police have broken up a wide awake demonstration by Just Stop Oil protesters outside the Prime Minister's London home calling for a halt on fossil fuel exploration in the UK.
The protest group said that about 18 supporters gathered outside Rishi Sunak's home and beat pots and pans while carrying placards stating: COP Failure=Crop Failure, No rest for the Wicked and Arrest the Real Criminals.
Just Stop Oil said that police attended and detained the protesters at the scene. It said in a statement on its website: There should be no rest for the wicked. Rishi Sunak has already abandoned the promises he made to his own children on climate he should have listened to them. New oil and gas is a sealed death warrant for the young and those who have done the least to contribute to this crisis. It's disgraceful that an unelected Prime Minister should throw our futures away to squeeze out more profit for his fossil fuel lobbyist cronies. Any politician who has the slightest desire to represent the interests of the British people would immediately ban all new licences for oil and gas in the UK.
