Just Stop Oil: Protestors could ‘interfere’ with King Charles’ coronation, City Hall told
  • last year
Climate protestors from controversial group Just Stop Oil could “interfere” with King Charles’ coronation, City Hall heard.

The environmental group has plans to take action on Saturday, May 6, the day of the ceremony at Westminster Abbey which will see the King officially crowned.

It comes after months of disruptive protests in central London, on the M25 motorway and around the country.

Demonstrations - including glueing on and blocking roads - are sparked by calls for the government to stop issuing new oil and gas licences in light of the ongoing climate crisis.

Speaking at the London Assembly policing and crime committee today (Wednesday, January 25) chairman Susan Hall asked Met Police commissioner Sir Mark Rowley about the issue.
