Climate activists accused of breaking News UK windows to go on trial
Rebels Crack Windows at News Corp UK on the hottest day of the year, July 19, 2022
FIVE Extinction Rebellion (XR) protesters involved in a window-breaking action at the headquarters of News UK will go on trial this month.
Activists took action to highlight the role of the The Sun and The Times newspapers in ”suppressing facts about the climate crisis, peddling an anti-climate action agenda and slowing the urgent action needed on the climate and nature crisis,” XR says.
The action took place during a heatwave in July 2022 on a day when temperatures broke 40 degrees in Britain for the first time.
