Just Stop Oil, a controversial environmental group renowned for its aggressive campaigns to curb the fossil fuel industry, watched its celebratory banquet turn sour this weekend when a fleet of orange balloons equipped with a loud alarm disrupted the proceedings.
The banquet, held in a private church, quickly descended into loud chaos. Members of a different group, apparently sharing the broader public’s disillusionment with the extreme tactics of Just Stop Oil, released large, bright orange balloons into the banquet hall.
The balloons were equipped with a high-decibel alarm, transforming the banquet into an unexpectedly noisy spectacle. Just Stop Oil members struggled to figure out how to end the droning racket resonating from the church’s ceiling.
WATCH:
Just Stop Oil is widely known for its direct action against oil companies, including sit-ins, blockades, and other disruptive activities. However, their activities have been criticized by many as counterproductive, alienating potential allies, and labeled as “ecoterrorism” by their fiercest critics.
