Could they not just throw a party? Just Stop Oil eco-idiots 'celebrate winning first demand' by VANDALISING Parliament Square

Four Just Stop Oil protesters have celebrated 'winning' their demand for the government to end all new oil and gas licenses in the only way they know how: by painting Parliament Square orange. 

The eco-activists sprayed children's powder-paint across three intersections outside Westminster this morning to 'celebrate' winning their 'original demand'. 

The incident, which took place at around 8:30am, has caused chaos for drivers in the capital during their morning commute, with cars being forced to drive through the paint, covering their tyres and spreading it around the road. 

While the group today claimed victory after the Labour Government's pledge to end all new licenses and consents for fossil fuel exploration and extraction, they vowed this is still 'not enough'. 

It was enough for the Metropolitan Police however, who promptly arrested the four demonstrators moments after they unfurled their banners.

One of the members of the eco-group taking action was Sheila Shatford, a 69-year-old NHS nurse from Bristol, who proclaimed: 'Just Stop Oil has won their demand for no new oil and gas, however this is not enough. 

'Now we must demand internationally coordinated action to phase out fossil fuels. Labour must commit to cancelling all oil and gas licences granted by the Tories in their final arson spree before they left office.'

If Just Stop Oil are claiming this is a victory you would sense it is a shallow one considering other developments last week. 

Stansted, East Midlands and Manchester Airports won an injunction to stop Just Stop Oil protesters from disrupting flights.

All three had fallen victim to renegade plotters storming terminal buildings, gluing themselves to runways and climbing on jets. 

The move comes after an undercover investigation by The Mail on Sunday revealed a plot by Just Stop Oil activists to disrupt flights this summer. 

Two Just Stop Oil activists were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage after appearing to spray orange paint over private jets at Stansted Airport - with one jet parked in the airfield thought to belong to singer Taylor Swift. 

Timothy Morshead KC, acting for the airports, said JSO had 'explicitly threatened a campaign of protest at the UK's airports' and there was an 'imminent' risk of blockades, obstructions and disruption.

In a post on X on June 20, Just Stop Oil said: 'Jennifer and Cole cut the fence into the private airfield at Stansted where @taylorswift13's jet is parked, demanding an emergency treaty to end fossil fuels by 2030.' 

On Friday, Judge Rosalind Coe KC granted the injunction against 'persons unknown whose purpose is or includes protest on the premises' in relation to the three airports.

She said while there are bylaws and criminal laws which may apply to such demonstrations, 'they do not prevent the threat or the action that an injunction would'.

Judge Coe said the injunction will be reviewed after 12 months.

The High Court injunction comes just days after police rounded up 27 JSO activists who are suspected of plotting to disrupt airports this summer, as part of a 'swift and robust' co-ordinated police operation.
