Private jets at Stansted airport were targeted by Just Stop Oil activists today
Stansted airport was the target of an environmental protest earlier today, with Just Stop Oil activists vividly spray painting private jets in orange including potentially that of pop star Taylor Swift.
The group detailed how two of their members infiltrated the private airfield at about five o'clock in the morning to launch their bold paint protest. Utilising fire extinguishers filled with orange paint, they targeted two aircrafts docked on the tarmac. Those involved have been identified by the group as Jennifer Kowalski, a 28 year old former sustainability manager from Dumbarton, and Cole Macdonald, hailing from Brighton and aged just 22 years.In a post shared via social media site X, Just Stop Oil explained: "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.
The daring stand-in included visuals of the action itself, seen in an accompanying video that depicts one of the protestors cutting through the security fencing before targeting the planes with their paint attack.
