Days after environmental activists threw soup over Van Gogh’s ‘sunflower’ painting at the London’s National Gallery, the ‘Just Stop Oil’ group protesters targeted the Aston Martin showroom in London

Several videos on social media showed an activist spraying the Aston Martin showroom’s front in orange in London’s Park Lane.

Some images and video clips also show police officers trying to talk to those blocking the Park Lane. 

The campaigners are calling for the UK government to halt all new oil and gas licences and consent. 

The Aston Martin incident came hours after UK home secretary branded the activists as Thugs and Vandals. 

Campaigners have vowed to continue protests everyday which entered 16th day. 

Earlier, Britain's Home Secretary Suella Braverman issued a threat to direct-action protesters. The group released a statement saying they would not be intimidated.
