26 arrested as angry motorists drag Just Stop Oil protesters from road

An MP questioned what the reaction would be if a “couple of black boys” had thrown soup on a Van Gogh, as environmental activists continued with a 15th day of protests on Saturday.

James Cleverly said “let’s stop giving these attention seeking adult-toddlers the coverage they clearly crave” after members of Just Stop Oil were dragged off a busy road by angry members of the public on Saturday.

The Foreign Secretary tweeted: “I’m just wondering what the reaction would be if a couple of black boys from Lewisham had thrown soup on a Van Gogh or poured milk all over the floor in Harrods.”
