The group said on X: ‘Private jet users are responsible for up to 40x as much carbon emissions compared with a commercial flight’. The previous day, Just Stop Oil protesters sprayed Stonehenge with orange powder paint before the summer solstice.

  1. Dégoûtant mais à la rigueur au moins ici je pense comprendre le sens de cette action toujours dans la même violence !
    Ce n'est pas comme à Stonehenge. Je trouve cette action sur un monument si ancien vraiment répréhensible et honteuse. Qu'y voit on si ce ne sont que des caprices d'enfants trop gâtée, mal élevés et ignorants qui ne comprennent rien au respect des monuments ou œuvres que le monde entier admire ? Ce sont de jeunes têtes vides qui raisonnent comme des casseroles.
    Voilà l'image donnée et on n'a pas envie du tout d'essayer de comprendre.

  2. Thats just really wrong. Imagine how much it would cost to remove the paint! Crazy, honestly, why take it out on innocent citizens?!

  3. Where was security ? These people are nuts! And why is it a big deal because it’s where Taylor Swift’s plane landed ?! Next time we’ll read that someone used the loo 5 miles away from where Taylor Swift did a poo 2 years ago in her private loo at one of her concerts .

  4. At least an airplane runs on fuel. It's still criminal but at least it makes sense. Can someone explain me what did those poor rocks do? Been there for thousands of years and never bothered nobody 😔

  5. I love aviation, and this video just.. hurts.
    They broke into the airport then started spraying somebodies jet? Like, why??

  6. What's the purpose of this breaking and entering? Do they know how expensive repainting these jets is.
    And they achieve absolutely NOTHING!!!
