Just Stop Oil protesters disrupt matches at Wimbledon

Climate activists have disrupted matches at Wimbledon by throwing confetti and jigsaw pieces onto the court.

All three protestors have been arrested.

It's the latest high-profile event to be interrupted by protestors after the recent Ashes test at Lords, the UK's rugby union final and the world snooker championship.

Punish the protesters . Not just a slap on the wrist but real jail time .

I much preferred the 1980s when we had female streakers interrupting sports events.

“Look at me! Look at me!“
things like this are why I no longer identify as a liberal. Absolutely has moved me to the center.

They need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Disruption like this should NEVER be tolerated. Have a cause? Take it up the correct way, don't be a petulant child!

"That's it I'm convinced climate change is real and I'm going up care and be an activist now after seeing this."

Said no one.

If they only knew what would happen to their precious comfy life style if we Just Stopped

[Bobsquash]

Funny how they never showed up at Glastonbury 😮

[JennyLaBouff]

I wish they would use their powers for good and not evil. They have no understanding of Oil and climate... it just amazes me at the ignorance.

[goodlookingman]

I’d love to see a security guard apply unnecessary excessive force in neutralising these people

[Cletus-Hellfire]

He is being a bit old for attention seeking.

[Bartholomeow]

nothing screams "I'm environmentally conscious" like littering

Climate activists all go home were water runs in sink, heat or cooling works, lights come on, beds mattress made of man-made fabric, drive places in cars, buses powered by gas or electric powered by grid powered by coal, gas. Dress in fabric man-made, eating food delivered by truck, talking on phones and electronics powered by electricity supply and using batteries that the production pollutes, even wind turbines, solar panels and electric car causes a landfill issue. So they need to look back when we were worried about an ice age in the 1970. Climate travels in cycles as it has for centuries hot to cold wet to dry. If they are true to their cause they need to move off grid without all the modern-day trappings.

The government needs to introduce a new law with mandated jail terms for disruptions on the roads and sporting events .
Jail should be immediate, take them before a judge their crimes are on video so no jury needed just throw them in jail

[DmitriM.-sxdh]

Fun fact, all these knuckleheads still rely on oil in some way, shape, or form. If these people actually cared they would show up wearing leaves, also they would hunt and gather their food. Guarantee they all still go to the super market!

[joshuaborne]

I wonder if that knucklehead realizes just how oil helps to produce all the clothes, shoes, glasses that he has on?

[saffronskies]

Oh they are SO LUCKY McEnroe wasnt playing

[nolanarmstrong]

These ppl literally need oil to live. Insanity

[raiders]

They should be dipped in oil as punishment!!! 😂

[scott]

Serious jail time. Not just token sentences. See how they act after a year or two in prison

[scsutton]

It does stagger me what some people will do when they can't take 'No' for an answer. Then again, it strikes me that these 'people', and I use the term very loosely, haven't been told 'No' for a very long time.
