Just Stop Oil drop ‘hint’ about Coronation protest on Twitter: Eco fanatics ‘like’ tweet showing map of King Charles’ procession route as 1,000 protesters expected to descend on central London

  • The eco fanatics were behind the protest at the snooker in Sheffield this week

Eco fanatics have raised fears they could target the Coronation of King Charles III after ‘liking’ a map of the procession route on social media.

Just Stop Oil, which was behind the protest at the World Snooker Championships in Sheffield this week, never discloses its stunts in advance but dropped a cryptic hint that the event on May 6 may be in its sights.

The group liked a Twitter post with a map of the route that suggested it could be the ‘final boss level’ for Just Stop Oil.

In response, Just Stop Oil said: ‘Don’t forget, in the UK you can now be arrested for planning a protest that’s deemed to cause too much disruption.’

The anti-monarchy group Republic has also revealed plans to protest the Coronation at the beginning and end of the route.

Around 1,000 activists are expected to descend on the area around Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace, bearing signs saying ‘not my king’.

Republic claimed it had received assurances that its protest ‘will not be interfered with by the Metropolitan Police’.

Just Stop Oil was approached for comment regarding the Coronation.
