The Just Stop Oil protest has shifted its attack from blocking roads and defacing works of art to vandalising luxury retailers in recent days.

First, the climate activists defaced a Ferrari dealership in London, now they have hosed orange paint all over a Rolex boutique in Knightsbridge.

The Rolex showroom, which was attacked on Friday, is owned and run by Bucherer.

A man and a woman were arrested after the protest in central London, Met Police have said.

Just Stop Oil have continued their protest over the weekend and into today (Monday).

So far today, activists have sprayed orange paint over the Home Office frontage, the MI5 building, The Bank of England and the headquarters of News Corp at London Bridge.

According to Just Stop Oil, “the buildings were chosen to represent the pillars that support and maintain the power of the fossil fuel economy – government, security, finance and media”.

  1. I might understand that they go against Ferrari but I can’t understand they go against Rolex. Most of the Rolex watches work thanks to the gravity winding a spring, it is almost like having a wind turbine on your wrist. There is no need of gasoline for using everyday your Rolex.
