Just Stop Oil 'Gangster Grannies' Attack Magna Carta
Two Just Stop Oil protesters in their 80s have smashed the glass around the Magna Carta at the British Library.
Reverend Sue Parfitt, 82, and Judy Bruce, 85, a retired biology teacher, targeted the protective enclosure around the historic document with a hammer and chisel on Friday morning.
Just Stop Oil said the pair then held up a sign reading “The Government is breaking the law” before gluing themselves to the display.
A statement from the British Library said its security team “intervened to prevent further damage to the case, which was minimal” and “the Magna Carta itself remains undamaged”.
The gallery that houses the display is closed until further notice, it added.

The Magna Carta isn't a work of art. It's much more important.
What the hell has gone wrong with this country and the rest of the world
Make them pay for the damage with extras and clean it up, or a few weeks in jail.

No, jail their evil groomers. Funny how these poshtards couldn't care less about the climate when the weather is cold. God forbid these posh privileged fools should suffer any discomfort. It's only a planet, what's that compared to the precious darlings feeling a bit chilly

I don't know why so many millions of people are unaware of the human cost of electric cars. Or maybe they are but they turn a blind eye because it doesn't fit their agenda.
To refer to the Magna Carta as 'art' is utterly wrong. It's not and never was 'art'. It's the basis for our legal rights. Do the half wits involved in this sickening stunt have no education?
The Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights are our Constitution. These idiots should be in prison, it is no laughing matter. The Magna Carter is not a work of art it is our Constitution.
Put them in prison for a few months

Thanks. The just stoppers make me laugh. They’re all clothed! Any idea how much oil was involved in making the silly tees they wear?🇺🇸

Those. 2 should be jailed.the magna carta is one of the most important ,documents in history. Nearly a thousand years old.actually never mind jail i suggest a nursing home

Its embarrassing for them and sadly for their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. The cat has shat on the bed and left.
Self righteousness and arrogance is even worse in old people than the young.
You headline Art attack, this is not Art its a very important legal document, put the stupid fools in prison. Its criminal.
Just stop oil is finished.
Very sinister insight to the mindset of these people. They despise our past and see it as thete to be destroyed.
Perhaps a punishment from the Period might be appropriate including the tool recording.
That's our real law if you don't know
It is our law, and not " just a thing"
Straight to Rwanda, don’t pass Go.
How dare they attack our heritage!
The pair of them should be jailed. No excuse for their behaviour. They should know better!!💯💯🤡🤡
No one is beyond the law that includes just stop oil.
Well off pensionees bored at home... put em in jail.
Where was security??!!
Silly old 🐄 s…. Bet their wardrobes are full of clothes they don’t wear, and got every kitchen gadget know to man, tv in every room.. 3 bathrooms, driveway, garage,

Heinz cant buy advertising like that.
There is very little of Magna Carta still in force today, the overwhelming majority of it has been removed from British law. I reckon these two were probably there at the signing! Prison is much less expensive than a Care home, so I suppose they're saving a few quid of the kids inheritance by doing this.
To be fair to the Nazis;, they mainly burnt pornographic and paedophiliac books.
Community service needed
One man’s art is another man’s crayon drawing
Just a reminder: The Magna Carta isn't art. The Constitution isn't a list of suggestions.
Problem is if you keep giving them Airtime they will carry on doing it. Same with the demonstration every sat in London . And Heinz soup most expensive should have gone for a savers brand.....
These two women should be sent to prison. It is not their first offence.
I used to think age was a sign of wisdom how wrong am I so sad.
give them jil if i was to do the same thing i woould be jailed
All civilisations reach a tipping point, we are no different.
They are always the most boring and robotic people youll ever meet...
It can’t be PMT - it must be BSE , it seems to effect these sort of people
Where have they been through the Winter months, sat in front of the fire no doubt.
These people should know better....put them in prison...why should they get away with it....although, it has to be said, is it staged and these two paid to stage the show
Who were the knob-heads filming them???? They should have been stopping them and taking their stuff away from them. By the way, the Magna Carta is a vital part of our Constitution, as is the Bill of Rights 1689. (Not that any of our treacherous politicians know - they either have no knowledge of it, or they are ignoring it).
10 years in jail
The Magna Carta is one of the most important historical documents in the world and probably our most important. Listing laws and ethics that are upheld to this day. What sort of vile scumbags would try to vandalise it? Put the old biddies in a secure home before they do any real damage.
Can they Remove Their Plastic Glasses, Made From Oil .
They do not have the right to stop traffic; it is unlawfully obstructing the highway and can and should be arrested.
What did they expect using cheap Chinese knock offs as their tools of choice?😂
Magna Carta art?
I hope there are locked up
Its funny but its not either
Is it their version of a driveby?
Well said Kevin as always!!!
Absolute stupidity.
Benifited from oil all their lives.

Do they know that north sea oil production has fallen by over 60% since its peak in the 1990s and continuing to fall... right? Then there is the record breaking one million EVs now on the UK roads and continuing to increase.. right?. Plus the record breaking number of solar and wind farms now there has ever been and still building more... right?. And finally, the renewable energy industry is now 4 times greater than GDP. So the big question... WHY?
