Just Stop Oil spray Stonehenge orange

Climate protesters have doused Stonehenge in orange paint on the eve of summer solstice. Two Just Stop Oil activists began spraying rocks at the ancient site at around midday, just one day before thousands are expected to descend on the site to celebrate the longest day of the year. The attack on Wednesday has been met with condemnation by the prime minister who said the group should be “ashamed” by the “disgraceful act of vandalism”. The group took action as they demand the next government sign up to a legally binding treaty to phase out fossil fuels by 2030.
