The activists plan to target airports in the UK and in Europe
Thousands of people will have their holidays disrupted as environmental campaigners Just Stop Oil plan to protest at airports in the Uk and across Europe this summer. Protesters plan to target airport terminals, try to get onto planes and glue themselves to runways in the UK and in destinations including Spain, Greece and Turley.
She added: “It’s time to wake up and get real – no summer holiday is more important than food security, housing and the lives of your loved ones. Flying is also a symbol of the gross wealth inequality that’s plaguing our society and if we want to create change we need to adopt a more radical demand.”
Conservative MP Gary Johnson said: “The actions of Just Stop Oil are counterproductive and put people off their cause. Most people want to see the environment protected but militant, highly disruptive protests just anger those who are often just trying to enjoy a family holiday.”
