JUST Stop Oil activists poured orange liquid latex over a life-sized Optimus Prime robot at the Tesla store in London today.

Two activists said “shut down the fascists” after climbing onto a podium display and unfurling a banner.

“While the rich dream of nazi robots and swasti-cars, what the rest of us need is warm housing, clean affordable energy and cheap public transport,” they said, “don’t let billionaires decide your future.”
