Leo Kearse gives some background on the loonies who splashed
Stonehenge,  World Heritage Site, with paint just before the annual
Summer Solstice celebration. He points out that Just Stop Oil's
principal backer is a multi-millionaire green energy provider who is
funding the incoming Labour government to squash his competitors in the
field of energy supply.

I don't know if the "activists" have even been charged for their
vandalism let alone if they will face any consequences for it. Other
acts of cultural vandalism in Britain have been largely ignored so it
will be surprising if these clowns get even a mild slap on the wrist. 

The 80 species of rare lichen that live on Stonehenge may not get away
so lightly. Apparently, the stuff that the vandals sprayed may be
destructive to those life forms. But hey, that's okay if your heart is
in the right place, and the vandals are sure they did right.
