- Just Stop Oil activists who threw tomato soup at a Vincent van Gogh painting have been found guilty today of criminal damage.
The two climate activists, Phoebe Plummer and Anna Holland, threw soup at van Gogh's Sunflowers before glueing their hands to a wall.
The protest happened at the National Gallery in central London in October, 2022.
Judge Christopher Hehir at Southwark Crown Court warned the activists to be “prepared in practical and emotional terms to go to prison”.
During Thursday's verdict, Judge Hehir stated the pair “came within the width of a pane of glass of destroying one of the most valuable artworks in the world”.
The judge also set bail conditions for the two 22-year-olds, which includes not carrying glue, paint or adhesive substances in public places.
Holland and Plummer are set to be sentenced on September 27 this year.
Vandalism is not protesting.
Should have used oil based paints 😂
It´s is a religious cult. It is all about creating an Us and Them feeling in the followers of the cult, to radicalize them further into violence.
It was when the Suffragettes did it...
The “stop oil” crew are brainless twats…
@@anemone104 No, it was still just vandalism, and it still did absolutely nothing for the suffragettes.
Also you're not a suffragette, stop ego tripping, child.
STOP CALLING THIS PROTESTING!
Absolutely, it is eco terrorism
They are "protestturds".
Protest: To express a strong objection to (something).
To participate in a public demonstration in opposition to (something): synonym: object

This painting is 136 years old. Just imagine what this painting survived. World War 2, rain, fire and I don't know what else. That's fucking crazy.
Unfortunately it wasn't idiot proof 😔
Weird how none of these "protests" to "stop oil" disrupt a single oil company, nor happen on any oil company's grounds.
Imagine they try to do that. Think about for a second. They would need a boat to go to a rig, battle the starting 3 ( navy, marines, homeland) and then vandalize it. That is quite the side mission.
these are actors paid by large oil companies to influence the publics opinion on anti oil... don't be fooled as easily as sheep.
They're a mix of idiots and attention whores. Many of them are even both. Imagine if they went for an oil rig and having to deal with security. They wouldn't get far.
@@videoceeor they could just get the money to spam adverts and donate to clean energy places or hold peaceful protests outside of buildings for oil companies or even host large gatherings where you clean up oil spills and show off the true damage it does.

You know what else is criminal? Taking 2 years to sentence these idiots. The only reason Just Stop Oil is a problem is because the justice system is broken.
And in 2 years, oil is still making their tags, coloring, hair products, ................
You defunately got that right! The system is in dire need of a major revamp

And the sentence is STILL not delivered! 😡
It's also been given a pass because a billionaire funds it. It's his organization.
The world is not about you. I haven’t seen this much narcissism ever. I hope they give them 10 years.
With hard labour.

The prisoners are going to have a field day with them because they don’t have their affluent parents to save them lol
They need to learn how to use oil paints in an intelligent manner - they must stay in prison until they can paint that Van Gogh painting themselves and they cannot leave prison until they paint it to perfection, exactly as the original. If they cannot - they need to make that prison their permanent address.
The mother of one of these nutters is now campaigning to get her 4 year sentence reduced, that makes me very angry I hope she fails just like she failed as a mother when she didn't teach her daughter to respect other people's property and rights.

i agree completely, i hear these types in our country crying about the criminal oil industry but you don't see them walking places or wearing clothes made of bark or leaves.
And waste a can of soup, which could have helped to feed a family of refugees.

This is plain stupidity. You can protest in better ways. Defacing art does not prove your point.
But they are so stupid … do not expect them to think 🤔 they have no brain .
I agree with you so here’s their point; But..but…your Honor!! It’s an OIL painting!! 🤯these two are products of indoctrination. Sad😞
This is NOT a "protest". It is violence. It is vandalism. They achieved NOTHING toward their goal but only got themselves taken to jail and court and to make people despise people like them for their antics. They gained no sympathy for their cause but only created animosity toward people like themselves.
They don’t have a cause, but they don’t know it. Mummy and daddy have to sit down with them and deal with them. Take away their allowance? Restrict their cell phone use?
That's so true. If someone says anything against oil-companies nowadays, it's easy to assume they belong to the same attention seeking extreme leftists.
They would still be glued to the wall if i had anything to do with it.

Modern art is nonsense, simply unique mediums of investment, that prize the death of the artist. The art world is a dictatorship not a democracy because most people hate modern art. But damaging other people's pretentious rubbish still is a crime.
This crime is blatantly evidenced. Why is it taking so long for justice to put them in jail?
Rich parents
Background reports. They send them to social workers to see if they have depression, bad upbringing blah blah blah
At one time they would have been arrested and would up in court the very next day. They videoed what they did, so the evidence against them would be overwhelming so it would be an open and shut case and the whole trial over in about 10 minutes. They would be on their way to jail immediately afterwards. That would be a proper deterrent.

If people were arrested, heavily fined and jailed, this would stop.
If the public very roughly stopped them doing it and law allowed that as "citizens defence" it would stop pretty sharply, same with people dragging them off the road and throwing them in the hedge, the law needs to stop protecting the law breakers from just consequences for being annoying bellends
@@Thetache literally....you ever wonder why these sort of acts ONLY happen in completely westernised countries....In other countries people still have self respect and will fight THEMSELVES against the person destroying property infront of them
I think they like to be arrested, fined and jailed. They think the publicity and outrage is good for the cause.
this is what happens when you never tell your children "no".
And that’s what happens when single m0mmy-hood is enabled, condoned and celebrated.
These rich little narcissists really think they're doing something heroic don't they? 😤
Even more frightening is that they will reproduce!
That should be a 10-year sentence minimum.
I think they just bought the painting - break it and you bought it! Let them pay the full amount! If they can't pay they will have to work in jail until they have paid for it.
Calm down everyone !!!! IT WASN’T DAMAGED AT ALL !!!! It was behind A GLASS PANELS. So all you art lovers; who think a human life ( created by GOD) isn’t worth a “painting” created by a single one if GODS Creations ; USE YOUR BRAIN 🧠 , if you still have one.
AS A JUDGE ; I would give them no more than 30 days community service and time served in detention. Let them just CLEAN UP the mess they created. Clean up the toilets 🚽 in the Museum. Maybe they meet some nice humans like you “Art Lovers” and you influence them with your caring & LOVE. ❤
They will probably only get a year or two but it should be "hard labour". That would certainly give them food for thought before re-offending.

Out of every artist they chose Vincent van Gogh? The man who ate paint because he had no food

"Number of people converted to their cause after this: ZERO"
I honestly wonder if they are funded by the oil companies...
They should be banned from using anything petroleum based.
No use of smart phones nor laptops, think of all the plastics involved in their daily lives. Not to mention the paint on their "just stop oil" t shirts
Not even a bicycle. Petroleum tires, oiled chain, plastic cable housings...
No spectacles, no jewellery, no leather shoes, certain clothes.These posh girls have been indoctrinated by parents or teachers.
No heat in the winter.
No cars, boats, planes or trains. No petroleum jelly based products. Nothing plastic or polyester including their shoes, clothes etc! Rather go clean a street or beach and be useful !
Vandalizing one of the worlds greatest pieces of art is not a peaceful protest.

I implore these young climate activists to please go to the biggest petroleum producing countries in the world and protest freely. I highly recommend going to Saudi Arabia and the UAE first. I heard they are very understanding, supportive and accommodating of these activities. 😌

@@anemone104 That's like saying murder or assault is OK because there are millions of people.
They committed an act of vandalism to draw attention to a pointless cause.
Not only jail time, they need to pay the cost to clean/restore the painting. No entry for museum and criminal charges recorded all over the world so they won’t be able to visit other countries for holidays or even for future work.
Verdade concordo com você.
The good thing is, this was most likely a replica. Most of the real art is tucked away from viewing because of this very thing.
They are stupid. Yes. But end any chance they have at being successful for throwing tomato soup at a painting? You're just as extreme as they are, except you want human beings to suffer.
Fortunately, the painting wasn't actually damaged, as it had a layer of protective glass.

Prison yes, but honestly, I don't know what I feel is the reasonable length. The fact is they went in there with malicious intent to vandalize and cause a disturbance. They didn't care how it would effect other people, they just wanted it to be loud.

Agree, by "stop oil," they probably meant stopping the petroleum industry, but petroleum is all around us. I mean naphta, cooking gas, paraffin, kerosene, wax, lubricant, bitumen, etc. There's a reason why petroleum producing countries are crazy rich despite the advent of electric and hydrogen car. We still doesn't have an electric or hydrogen fueled commercial and passenger aircraft, researchers estimate it would take another decade to make it a reality.
They'll be needing the lube oil in prison, lol
This is 100% protesting the intention was to protest against fossil fuel consumption and government policies related to oil and gas, rather than to vandalize art for its own sake.

In the grand scheme of things only two types of people: Those who can actually make things, and those who only destroy what others have built.
Three different types of trades have to make that wall. Those who make the wall structures, those who put plasta walls & those who paint & fill it.
These rich urban kids don't know how much effort goes into making a simple wall.
Very well said!
I love this phrase. Not only it's true but it's also beautiful. I'll write it in Latin to see if it looks great :
❛❛In magna rerum configuratione, duo ſunt genera perſonarum: quæ conſtruere reapſe poſſunt & quæ ſolummodo deſtruunt quod alii ædificaverunt.❜❜
Beautiful, it should be written on a monument.
If only the media stopped covering these performative crimes these crimes would stop. Please don't give these people media coverage.
Or if the legal system would effectively deal with them
If only the media stopped pushing this climate nonsense this would happen less.
@@lifebetweenraindrops I don't think they care about the punishment attached to the crime - that would not stop them in my opinion.
@@Opinionsrnotfacts574 bullshit they are doing this for money. I don't know who is paying them but if they thought there were actual repercussions I guaranfuckingtee it would stop immediately
@@Opinionsrnotfacts574 You can't change their minds about being degenerates, but concrete walls filled with guards and surrounded by barbed wire fencing are definitely good at stopping people like them from reoffending
The vandals didn't destroy rome, they were merely peacefully protesting against civilization...
The same people who asked, “What’s more important? Art or life?” While throwing soup at a painting instead of giving to those who need to live another day. Irony at its finest
All they do is spout useless garbage that makes you feel sorry for them and makes you feel guilty for not adhering to their agenda.
And the irony is that there's probably some kind of oil in Pinky's hair dye 🤦🏽
@@LatinGiudo817 JSO are only against the use of oil in engines and power plants. You folks think you are being clever when you point out that "things are made of oil" but everyone over the age of five knows that things are made of oil and so everyone over the age of five should also be able to tell what JSO stand for. It's not rocket science, do better.
@@krashd So stopping traffic and vandalizing art is "stopping oil companies" rather than protesting near said oil companies? Any one over the age of 5 would see that there's no logic in that. Hell, 5 year olds would make more sense than that. Looks like you need to take your own advice JSO supporter.
"What's more valuable, food or art?" - throws food at art.
💯
No one was jailed for telling the truth. They were jailed for the crime of vandalism.
No one was jailed for ANYTHING yet. They were found guilty of the crime but have not yet been sentenced.
Ain't even the truth
@@whitehead1187 The truth about what? There were multiple points in those two comments. Are you denying one, some or all of them?
@@mimikurtz2162 erm it isn't difficult, use your powers of deduction to decode what the person meant. It's all elementary Watson 😂
@@mimikurtz2162 Have you heard these people? Alot of them think we are going to burn alive in a few years. They are brainwashed nutters
10 hrs without parole
Glue the hands to the wall ?… they would do better to glue their mouth shut.
Funny how they NEVER desecrate modern art...
Would anyone notice that they had?
Because it ain’t worth SHIT 💩
@@DavidPlayfairI was thinking the same thing. Lol😊
Or demonstrate the Formula 1 at Silverstone for instance? It is because they are cowards and their group is very small. But most of them it's because they are cowards.
Excellent observation!
The young and brainwashed...
Just brainwashed, it's not just the youth. Look at 1:45 and 3:15 into the video and the age of the people holding those signs
@@mikeslater6246it's amazing some people hit 70+ yrs and remain brainwashed
rather brainless
@@rysev700x They probably were active during the 70s, so this like "round 2" for them.
You have to have a brain to be brainwashed.
I would have removed the botches leaving thier hands attached to the wall.
They would HATE their lives if there was no OIL.
Yes! Then they would whine about the things they used to have and how life is so hard.
What a bunch of narcissistic hypocrites!
Then it's a good thing then that JSO don't want there to be "no oil".
@@krashd No, they just want an end to all oil, gas, and coal use by the year 2030.
Which is a pipe dream. They would do better asking for a unicorn as a pet. It's an organization that preys on mostly naive youth who have almost no real world adult experience. Take pink hair in this video for example. A young woman who has admitted to never paying a bill in her life. Yet the world should listen to her and people like her? Yea, no thanks.
Their clothes are probably made from oil ,the As for the judge it should wet the tissue paper so the sentence don't hurt them 1:34
Should throw McFadden in jail with them. Destroying whatever they want doesn't help climate cause. These people are nuts and belong in jail.
This solicitor is not speaking as a professional, but as a militant. McFadden's objections are not even of legal nature.
I can tell many truths, but if I vandalize property, I'm still a criminal.
If you are keep telling the truth, and nothing is being heard, then the direct action is warranted. Lol.
these are actors paid by large oil companies to influence the publics opinion on anti oil... don't be fooled as easily as sheep.
Committing a crime is a terrible way to get what you think is a truth out there. Everybody already knows about just stop oil and there reasons and people have their own opinions. They did not achieve anything so really they just committed a crime.
@@sonofburma No, not if the direct action is vandalism.
God how I wish it was a real painting and they had to pay it all back lmao lol.
This is so antisocial. Completely unacceptable.
Apparently when you go to court, it’s a good idea to hire a lawyer who practices law if you want to stay out of jail instead of hiring another whack job activist.
I'd also consider hiring a barrister, rather than a solicitor, when appearing in crown court. Although, having said that they were bang to rights anyway, and their solicitor did them no favours whatsoever.
But in this case, the offence is absolute. Get these two lunatics off the streets and put them where they belong.
Sometimes you can tell people are annoying to be around just by looking at them. These two women look exactly like that.
A Ranger Goth.....
I hope they both get the maximum sentence thrown at them and they spend every day of that sentence in jail.
Unfortunately whatever the sentence is, they we only do half. Which I have never understood.
If you destroy history and art, you destroy yourself.
That particular painting is worth 39.9 Million. The courts should make a mandatory sentence of making them work civil service jobs, to pay for the actual cost of the painting AND the cost to clean it. That should keep them as indentured servants for the rest of their lives. That will also stop all of the other nut jobs from doing the same thing.
That’s reasonable. History should be preserved. Defacing history should be considered an act of treason to humanity.
Well, the painting was behind a pane of glass, so the total damages were maybe $100.
The painting likely wasn't the real one. Just a good copy of it, also was behind glass. But stupid way of protesting or whatever bs they are doing.
No. Just prison, for life.
@@FitnessGuru91I work at one of these museums and the paintings are all real. The glass you don't see many times, because it's on camera but in person you will see it's tempered glass that can withstand many hits from even small caliber bullets like 9 mm. I work as a supervisor at one of the museums which I can't name due to security, but all I can say and share is that in case of a fire or anything catastrophic big none of the paintings or artwork would likely survive and since it's all insured it's got to be real and there for insurance companies to pay the owner of the museum etc. Yes some paintings might be swapped by a clone, fake or call it what you want, but we mostly only do that when repairs are being done on the actual painting. Most clones or fakes won't even stay I display for more than 3 days at a time lol
This crime has convinced me their cause is evil and we need to raise and fight against the cause.
These two young women will get a shock, and a criminal record when they are rightly sent to prison.
They proved their point. People care more about a painting than the fact we are all going to die.
As a lesson, the museum should have closed. Leaving them guarded via camera & glued to the wall, ignored.
Nah they would have destroyed more things. Just glue them in the basement and keep them there for the night lmao
Oh, just say "The solvent to release you from the wall is derived from oil, you won't want any of that, so you'll be there for a few weeks. And you won't want a potty, either, they are plastic, (derived from oil), so maybe I can get you a woolly pad to pee into and a wooden tampon?"
I dont know how committing a crime by vandalizing a timeless painting is gonna change climate. Just go to jail already.
but they use oil in many ways everyday ....Why don't THEY stop
Exactly! All transportation takes oil. I wonder if they walked or rode their bikes to the museum. They need to be sentenced to live without any trace of oil in their day to day living - including polyester clothing, the water proof back packs, all plastics, shoes, etc.
these people are the biggest hypocrites. if you took everything that has oil apart of it from them. they would go even more insane and be put in an asylum.
They won't stop until everyday people take action and physically stop them.
@@chrisredfield4017 then the legal system throws you in jail. its so wrong.
They are liberals. Too lazy to actually do anything good, so they destroy whats good already. But they say nice words that make them think they have moral authority.
Please bring back ASYLUMS! They're obviously needed!
Let them become part of the exhibit. Keep them glued there.
Agreed
Yeah, I don’t know why they make such an effort to safely remove these glued idiots. Let them sit and that part will stop happening.
And duct tape their mouths
They'd begin to stink before too terribly long. And they're more likely to deter visitors from the exhibition than attract them.
I've been saying this for a long time. Let them stay glued where they put themselves. If they end up fouling themselves after awhile, let the public see them. I'd think a day or two would be fine before taking them to jail.
This is vandalism stop sugar coating this atrocity
When is vandalism an atrocity? 9-11 was an atrocity.
Why isn't Katie McFadden, their solicitor, facing prison time?
She appears to be part of the problem.
So you advocate for a system of kangaroo courts where an accused is not allowed legal council? Let's see how that pans out
This is terrorism, and should have been treated as such. What a joke.
