Climate extremists avoid jail time after plotting to shut down Heathrow as judge condemns publicity stunt trial
05/20/2025 / By Cassie B.



Nine Just Stop Oil activists avoided prison despite plotting to shut down Heathrow Airport by gluing themselves to the runway, receiving only suspended sentences.

The group planned to breach security with angle grinders and superglue, risking mass travel disruptions and emergency delays before police intercepted them.
Judge Hannah Duncan condemned the activists for exploiting the trial as a publicity stunt, wasting court resources needed for serious crimes.
Sentencing inconsistencies persist, with harsher penalties for other protesters while JSO members repeatedly escape jail for disruptive actions.
Just Stop Oil is part of the A22 network, a global coalition of climate extremists whose tactics endanger lives yet face minimal legal consequences.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
