Two women charged after private jets sprayed with paint in Just Stop Oil protest
Friday, 21 June 2024 Two women have been charged with criminal damage and other offences after Just Stop Oil activists sprayed private jets with orange paint at Stansted Airport.
Just Stop Oil environmental protesters have spray painted one of Britain’s most visited tourist spots. Two individuals were seen running towards two of Stonehenge’s megaliths, spraying paint and leaving orange marks on some of the stones. Veuer’s Chloe Hurst has the story!
Environmental campaign group Just Stop Oil held their 'final protest' since announcing they will stop direct action, claiming it has won its demand to end new oil and gas.
The group had drawn attention, criticism and jail terms for protests ranging from throwing soup on Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers and spray painting Charles Darwin’s grave to climbing on gantries over the M25.

Just Stop Oil campaigners protest outside the Court of Appeal at the Royal Courts of Justice, where sixteen climate activists are challenging their sentences. The protesters received prison sentences of between five years and 15 months in July and August last year for their roles in four demonstrations held by Just Stop Oil between August and November 2022, including climbing on gantries over the M25 and throwing soup over Vincent van Gogh's Sunflowers.
