Just Stop Oil Activists Throw Soup at Van Gogh’s Sunflowers

Why Van Gogh? I recon some grown up told them Van Gogh was poor.

“The cost of living crisis is part of the cost of oil crisis, fuel is unaffordable to millions of cold, hungry families. They can’t even afford to heat a tin of soup.”

Climate activists have helped to make fuel unaffordable by opposing oil and gas exploration, production, and transport.

> ...two young supporters of the climate protest group threw the liquid over the painting, which is protected by glass, just after 11am.

This is a detail that I've seen get missed in other discussions of this.

If "punching a Nazi" is socially acceptable; then stomping the crunchy out of these fools, on scene and immediate, should be just as acceptable.
