Just Stop Oil Protestor Who Pulled ‘Hay Wain’ Painting Stunt Has Racked Up 50,000 Air Miles on Exotic Holidays
It’s a funny story:
Student Hannah Hunt, 23, is the co-founder of Just Stop Oil whose social media pages are adorned with exotic holiday pictures from locations including Bali, Australia and the Canary Islands.
The aspiring psychologist has contributed to chaos across the country, after she was pictured glueing herself to roads, camping in the rafters of a major oil depot in Essex and today stuck pictures over John Constable’s The Hay Wain in London.

A really good example of rules for me and not for thee.
She and fellow student and musician Eben Lazarus, 22, first plastered over Constable’s masterpiece with pictures portraying an apocalyptic future, before they glued their hands to the frame as security stood on and watched.
The pair were quick to lecture the public on fossil fuels being a ‘death project’ and warning of the ‘total collapse of society’, despite Ms Hunt previously admitting she ‘impulse flew to the Canaries to escape chilly British weather’.
The former XR supporter even used the trips to bolster her environmental credentials, telling social media followers from Bali: ‘Can we look back in another 50 years and say we did everything to protect our pretty cool planet?’

and
The student co-founded Just Stop Oil in February, marching on No 10 to tell Boris Johnson to ‘intervene’ to prevent ‘the ultimate crime against our country, humanity and life on Earth’.
She has become a hero among eco-zealot supporters of the group, which formed as a breakaway of Extinction Rebellion.
Earlier this year she glued herself to the red carpet at the Bafta awards, and she has broken into an ExxonMobil oil refinery in Hampshire.
Hunt and Lazarus were both arrested at around 4.45pm following their eco-vandal stunt earlier today.

She should be ignored completely, left glued to whatever she glued herself to.
They should leave her there overnight and go home.
That will be funny.
Should Have used her as a Stepping Stool during the Red Carpet stunt
She will rip off the paint within an hour when she has to go to the bathroom.
And never think they will be non violent the moment they are in power. (to save the planet)
Her history is quite narcissistic and egocentric selfish.
She’d resort to despotic tyranny at the first sign she wasn’t getting her way.
Dream on. Her lot will never get a chance to be ‘in power’ because those behind them, spurring them on, will take over and idiots like these along with treasonous pollies and academics, will be the first lined up in front of the firing squads.
Nobody likes traitors, not even those who use them – look to USSR and China to see just who it is gets smeared first.
Why do you imagine they glued themselves to a priceless work of art? They are holding it hostage. Leave them there and they vandalise the actual painting, not just the frame.
You never negotiate with a terrorist.
Sue their butts off for compensatio. It is worth it.
Looks like her daddy has plenty sue him for every penny no more air travel you young “lady”
No glue their butts, now that would be funny
Together? As in glue their butts together to each other?
So, they can effectively wear “Push Me Pull You” costumes?
They already vandalized the painting when they applied their delusional self sticking posters to the painting.
What is the maximum penatly in the UK for vandalism of priceless national treasures?
And then haul them into court for the value of the damage.
We need to start doing what the French gendarmes do – just rip their hands off whatever they glued themselves to. Those road-stickers squealed like babies when they lost their grip.
Oh, and sack the ‘security’ at the gallery! What is the use of ‘security’ who stand and watch such things?
“Hello Ms Hunt.
We are going to try a new method to unstick your hands.
This is a cattle prod.
(https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/business-farming-industry/farming-forestry/livestock-health-management/cattle-prods)
It puts out a very large electric charge. We are going to try to remove your hand by giving your arm a shock. It should cause the muscles in your arm to jerk uncontrollably, hopefully causing you to separate your hand from the painting’s frame.
It may take a few shocks to get your hand free.
There may be some slight discomfort, but don’t worry. We will keep shocking you until you are free. “
My Dad had one of those back in the 60’s, he ran a small trucking business in rural NZ, shifting cattle occasionally as needed. Although only powered by a couple of “D sized” batteries, us kids who went with him when possible, had a lot of fun giving each other a surprise prod given the opportunity, oh the memories
There was a similar incident in Brattleboro VT a few years ago when a couple of trust fund babies chained themselves onto a construction site to prevent “eco damage”. They wouln’t leave, so the police just started Tasering them. After each shock, they politely asked them to unlock their chains. After a while they got the message and ended up in jail where they belonged.
The pair eventually sued but the case was thrown out for obvious reasons.
In VT, the second most liberal state, after HI, in the union, that being thrown out of court is a surprise, sort of.
Of course it was thrown out because the liberals in VT had no way to make conservatives pay the judgment.
I remember a local police chief told me about the verdict and how surprised everyone was. He was actually overjoyed about it.
Maybe some construction sites are more equal than others?
I have similar memories. Fun for the whole family.
Better yet they can glue her to the bottom of the next Commercial Flight to Bali. That way she can get a birds eye view of our “pretty cool planet.” before she expires for good.
Make sure to take the glue reversal product out of her pockets before you leaved so she can’t go to the the loo when the urge hits.
Should have been security tasered them, then handcuffed them and held them for police to take to jail on vandalism charges.
All planned. You wouldn’t last 30 seconds.
Care to expound on that?
Tasers? Art Gallery security are armed with a radio and that’s it. They’re not there to stop incidents like this from happening, just to stop people walking off with the paintings. For everything else they will call the Police to deal.
If they lived in certain other countries they would have had their hands surgically removed.
Gee, come to think of it, you just don’t hear about incidents like that in certain other countries, now do you?
Typical climate alarmists. Do as I say not as I do.
From the Just Stop Oil website:
Why is Just Stop Oil needed?
“The scientific evidence is unequivocal: climate change is a threat to human wellbeing and the health of the planet. Any further delay in concerted global action will miss a brief and rapidly closing window to secure a liveable future”
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change, Sixth Assessment Report, Working Group II Co-Chair Hans-Otto Pörtner, 28th February 2021
“If governments are serious about the climate crisis, there can be no new investments in oil, gas and coal, from now – from this year.”
Fatih Birol, Executive Director, International Energy Agency, 18th May 2021
“What we do in the next 3 to 4 years will, I believe, determine the future of humanity”
Professor Sir David King, former UK Government Chief Scientist, February 2021
Rubbish statements like these only encourage the alarmists.
robin williams whos controlled abc science shows for decades thinks King is a god/guru
nuff said?
Rubbish statements like these only encourage the alarmists.
As they’re meant to do.
Wait… So that ‘window’ that was supposed to close circa 2000 is STILL open?
Maybe these activists could use their glue on it so we can just get on with the doom they so love?
Or perhaps glue themselves into it so it stays open and all the humans can stop worrying?
Perhaps they mean Just Stop Oil Painting.
Constable’s The Hay Wain was painted in 1821, the exact location nowadays does not look much different despite a 1C increase in temperature yet we are expected to believe that a further increase of 0.5C would sent the planet to the brink of a climate cataclysm.
His skies are also noticeably cloudy, almost overcast.
We seem to get a lot of those, presently.
He never painted wind turbines, mind.
Sort of did.
Some windmills are more useful than others.
As Wind Turbines have proven time and again, Like Windmills, they’re most useful when their main mechanism is GRINDING
Or pumping water out to sea.
Their painting of an apocalyptic and disoptain future should have included a view of how the landscape would look if they had their way, covered with solar panels , wind turbines and battery sheds.
The trees would have all been cut down for fuel by people trying to keep warm in winter when the wind doesn’t blow and the battery has gone flat.
The landscape would be covered by dead bodies just like during the Pol Pot regime.
Looks a lot greener now.
We are not 1°C above normal at all. Spreadsheet explained.
Excess + Atmosphere average 835 watts over 7 months.
Atmosphere: 1.4 x 1.283kg x 334^2 = 200377 / 967 Joules/watt = 207.2 watts
Earth absorbs and loses average 628 watts over 7 months.
Present earth emitted thermal energy is 333.5 w/m2, not normal 340 w/m2
Distance from the sun decreases in this period and should start to increase.
July the energy from the sun was 1316 w/m2 and Jan 1407 w/m2
Earth emits more in the summer as the 23 degree tilt means the sun heats land
dominated northern hemisphere.
Earth should emit total emission no lower than 1316 w/m2(329.1w/m2x4) in winter and warm no higher than 1407 (351.7w/m2x4) in summer.
Antarctic has been very cold recently. This has an effect on global temperature. Far east had a brutal winter with the freezing line as low as 25°N latitude. Winter continued in some parts of early May. Yet officials keep the carbon dioxide temperature clock ticking upwards. Third year La Nina and were 1.4C below normal not 1.25C above normal.
Physician, heal thyself
Physician? Psychologists are nothing more than chiropractors with credentials. Her “cure” would be to prescribe antidepressants.
As a psychologist, not a psychiatrist, she’ll have no authority to prescribe any meds.
Following general academic psychological practice, however, she’ll be qualified to assume what she does not know and then compose a grievance narrative about it.
Many years back I saw a study (in SciAm I think, back before they became an activist mouthpiece) about psych and the students. From memory, they claimed psychiatry had less than 7% success rate in ‘curing’ the ills of the afflicted and psychology was a bit higher.
The interesting part was almost all the students went into psych because of their own personal problems.
I’ve never trusted the field since – 90%+ of people with mental problems so extreme they can’t simply think their way through them then head out into the world to ‘cure’ others and less than 10% of them ever sorted themselves out through the discipline they practice?
yeah… that’s a good look.
Why is she not in prison? Breaking and entering a refinery? Trespassing? Vandalism? These are criminal activities.
The judiciary sympathises with them
Is it true that Brits have no stones?
Just the ones they use for measuring weight.
THIS is the problem.
They feel they can indulge in civil disobedience with virtually no punishment because they and the judiciary think they were motivated by a “good cause”.
What is the point of paying for security if the security guards you have paid for do not stop stunts like this from happening?
Just another pair of silly stunts. The media needs to stop aiding and abetting these criminal anarchists and stop giving them coverage.
Maybe offer them a period of life in the world conditions they are championing. Send them off to live without fossil fuel for a month. No running water, no gas or oil lamps, no indoor sanitation. No heating other than what they can gather and manage to burn.
Let us see how long these eco warriors would last in their preferred ‘sustainable environment’ world.
That’s my beef with these events. Drivers get arrested for holding up traffic by legally driving at 30mph on dual carriageways, but these serial vandals clearly get no punishment sufficient to deter them from re-offending. What’s the use of a punishment if it doesn’t deter?
Quite how they had time to cover the painting which, to be fair, ensured the integrity of the artwork itself, without being dealt with by security is one of life’s enduring mysteries. Quite why they still have jobs (assuming they have) is beyond me.
That is because the government agrees with the XR mob, as well the BLM crowd, but protest about government policy and for the benefit of people and your feet won’t touch the ground.
Exactly! They didn’t have any problems arresting Canadian truckers &
protesting Dutch farmers. Hypocrisy rules!
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/07/04/dutch-farmers-intensify-protests-form-transit-blockades-on-roads-bridges-and-ports-angered-by-new-energy-mandates-and-forced-livestock-reductions/
This pair don’t need jobs – they have trust funds worth millions!
Affluent delusions – only the well off seem to be able to afford such insanity and, of course, it’s the affluent taking care of their own. I imagine the poorer members of society, if they pulled a stunt like this, wouldn’t get the same preferential treatment.
Exactly what I have been proposing for these eco twats for a long time. Let them live the dream they have for the rest of us normals, starting right now.
Round ’em up, take away everything they own or wear which is produced by fossil fuels, then drop ’em in an environment where they could live their fantasy.
Sort of like living by being an example for the folks who don’t have their delusional mindset.
Yeah, like that’ll ever happen.
Prison doesn’t seem to hold much fear for them so how about hitting them in the wallet – £1m fine per incident, plus damages. It’ll be a nice little windfall tax to pay for the police and courts time they wasted.
Just close the doors to the room of that particular exhibit. They want attention so let them stand there in an empty room (with one guard to make sure they don’t damage the artwork) until they get bored.
What the museum should have done is left them glued in place, and then place a larger frame around them, with the description, “2022: Climate Hypocrisy in flesh”.
That would work as well. Ridicule is also a good tool.
If I’m seeing this correctly, Hannah’s a bigger racist murdering monster than Ed Gein- she
slaughtered numerous black naugas & unashamedly displayed their hydes publicly in the jacket she
made from them! Oh, the humanity!
Cost of living crisis: Two thirds of Britons are worried about being able to afford food and other essentials
This doesn’t apply to the rich kidz with time and money to waste on damaging paintings when they aren’t jetting off around the globe – just like that nice Mr Heinz
Her Dad own’s an ‘environmental consultancy’, and is wealthy enough to own two homes.
Perhaps hypocrisy should be made a crime, but that would have every politician on the planet locked up so it’s never going to happen.
Hard time even at SW19:
Wimbledon stars have been asked to be “judicious” about maxing out their daily food allowance so supplies do not run out.
Competitors are given a £90 a day allowance to spend on food and drink in dedicated restaurants across SW19. Coaches are allocated about half that amount, with the funds available on accreditation tags that can be scanned at checkout.
£90/ day?
A Big Mac costs under a fiver….
Sorry, but Mickey D is not on the favored list. My guess is that the dedicated restaurants that have an agreement with Wimbledon are very high-end and quid doesn’t go very far.
This is similar to a mouse glue trap but instead of catching mice would be used to catch greenies.
That just gave me a hilarious thought….imagine a huge human-sized rat trap, cocked and ready to spring. And mounted on the trigger is a big button with text saying “push here to alleviate climate change”!
There are perfectly good laws to deal with this sort of nuisance, but police and magistrates are to busy dealing with ‘transgender’ verbal delictae.
These halfwits moved from road surfaces to more comfortable locations. Perhaps if press and media ignored them and not reported, hopefully they might look for more public locations i.e. Downing St or Buck house gates.
Beside us evil deniers, independents are seeing through the liberal hypocrisy of
climate change being used as an excuse for high inflation & gas prices. Only 18% of
them support FJB. Along with that, Squad member Ilhan Omar got booed at a Somali
concert. As one tweeter put it- “I don’t get what the hype about this is. All that
happened was that some people did something.”
After Nobama said we can’t drill our way out of high gas prices, the drillers proved him
wrong. To keep from being humiliated again, he replaced Goldman Sachs with Blackrock
cuz Fink would help plan a way to hogtie the energy industry. (NEC’s chief Deese was
in Nobama’s WH.) High inflation will drive us into a recession which will impoverish most
people, with gubmint programs being FJB’s solution. (A needless bill for daycare $$$.
REALITY- people needing daycare are more employed than average.) Schwab- you
will own nothing. From THEIR words, they’re very serious about winning!
I’d definitely keep an eye on the illegals flown everywhere in the US. They’re dropping
very many cases against illegals, creating a sort of “de facto amnesty” letting up to 1M
to seek permanent legal status by 2024. Could this be done now for everyone in ’22
via an FJB order allowing “one-stop shopping” where legalized harvesters can collect
ballots & citizenship paperwork as part of amnesty? Were the areas they sent them to
being targeted for close local/state/congressional races? Keep an eye on the pea!

These terrorists belong in jail.
They don’t seem to be bothered about prison. Hitting them with massive fines might be better – take away their money and see how they like being poor without luxury holidays and expensive lifestyles.
You just try this in a museum and see if you last 4,59 . All this is planned and paid for by those behind the curtain who can print all they need to buy/corrupt the system.
All we see is fake news by those who want to rule the world and fly around in their private planes.
And don’t think they will be non violent the moment they are in power. (to save the planet)
Just stop Oil (for the plebs not us)!
But why oil paintings that are made with VEGETABLE oil? Will they be blocking sunflower oil factories next?
How is it these people are not in jail for at least 20 years ? Who is protecting them ? Who are the wizards behind the curtain ?.
And are we sure she is a she and he is a he ?
All this is just to funny and insane to belive. Everyday a new development takes place that tells you what is really driving the green agenda. Greata is going to be angry. She is not going to make it past her 25 birthday. Sad. https://www.spiked-online.com/2022/07/04/the-unravelling-of-germanys-green-agenda/
Calling these drones hypocrites is similar to calling Karl Marx a revolutionary – it’s true, but it also lends their ideology a credibility it doesn’t deserve. By getting drawn into comparing ‘carbon footprints’ and air miles, people are accepting de facto that Carbon Dioxide is a pollutant, when the whole idea that this trace gas is a threat to the world is built on sophistry, fraud and demonstrable nonsense.
I applaud Hannah Hunt for helping to enhance the atmospheric availability of gaseous plant food, contributing very slightly to greening the planet’s arid regions, and for her contribution to the struggling tourist industries of countries she’s visited. May she continue to fly anywhere she likes for a very long time, and may her other weird glue-related activities bring attention to the absurdity of the regressive cult who have captured her imagination.
Nothing compared to the stunt they tried to pull at Silverstone at the British F1 Grand Prix on Sunday. They got on the track just before the start and sat down on Wellington straight. If there had not been a crash at the first corner at the start they would have F1 cars coming down on them at 160+ mph. Marshalls dragged them off and the police arrested them. Subsequently we have a BBC football commentator being a complete arse and to cap it all Mr Woke of F1 Lewis Hamilton said “Big up the protesters”. Mercedes Team quick to issue a “clarification” and Hamilton rowed it back later.
These ecoterrorists are going to get themselves or others killed very soon. And there are woke idiots like Hamilton and famous BBC presenters like Gary Lineker egging them on. The ignorant and stupid leading the ignorant and stupid.
Martin Brundle takes swipe at Gary Lineker over British Grand Prix protestors | Daily Mail Online
IPCC never dared to makean estimate of future climate fatalities, apparently former soccer player Lineker knows better?
No, as they say in Liverpool, Lineker, is just a knob!
From racefans.net:
“Sainz said he initially thought the race had been stopped because of the people he saw near the track at the start of the race. “I thought the red flag was for that because as soon as I came out of five I saw three guys running towards me,” he said.”
All F1 drivers are caught in the Overton Window with regard to climate change. But some, especially Hamilton, have to jump on the woke band wagon with both feet apparently not understanding that racing a high performance motor car for sport is something the protestors want to ban.
Hamilton sure can drive quick, shame his intellect is a little slower.
Hamilton is a good driver, possibly even a great driver, but this season goes to show that the car was a major part of his success.
Agreed. Rather interesting paper on driver performance at:
(PDF) Formula for success: Multilevel modelling of Formula One Driver and Constructor performance, 1950-2014 (researchgate.net)
It is impossible to get on the track if they don’t let you.
Clearly they got on the track. The idea that Silverstone security or marshals allowed them to do so seems highly improbable. An F1 meet has to be the most unlikely place to find many people to be supportive of eco-terrorist goals.
Most likely they climbed a fence or charged past security at some point. How they got on the track will almost certainly be a huge issue for Silverstone organisers as the FIA will investigate from the perspective of safety. How they got on the track is not likely to be discussed publicly for obvious reasons.
In the arrest statement the police have said that they went equipped to glue themselves to the track.
Perhaps the marshals should be equipped with cattle prods…
Marshals have to be able to get onto the track quickly and easily in the event of accidents. The barriers are there to stop fragments of crashed car injuring spectators not to stop them getting onto the track; it’s always been assumed that F1 spectators had far more sense than to try to get onto the track during a race. I don’t believe they had or needed help getting onto the track but an amount of insider knowledge probably helped – they had to know where the marshals and accident crews were going to be and which section of track offered maximum publicity and (relative) safety for them.
Concur with that. I seem to vaguely recall there are slight gaps at the end of some of the safety fences where you might be able to squeeze onto the track. Not so sure about they where they got on, possibly down the bank from the Aramco/Rolex bridge?
I was actually at the race at Silverstone for the full weekend, at Luffield. We were not even aware of the protest until we get home Monday as it was out of sight to our right, the first bend we could see being Brooklands. There was no mention on the track radio, the commentary or the big screens. Apparently it was only if you were on Twitter that you would know. F1 and Sky Sports managed to starve the protestors of the oxygen of publicity very well.
I imagine the key witness and accomplice will be called to the stand to testify in her trial for vandalism: “Lazarus, come forth!”
No doubt if someone had stepped in to beat the living daylights out of these woke fools, then security would have stepped in. Clowns should be fired, or if they were told to stand down, then the clown responsible for that decision should be fired.
there is no stopping these idiots
Protesters from Just Stop Oil glue their hands to the frame of a copy of The Last Supper at the Royal Academy in London today
They are the very image of the smug, self-regarding Guardian reader.
There’s a lot of synthetics (nylons, rubber soles shoes, animal dependent leather shoes, spray paint) being utilized by these hypocrites. Probably arrived there in a fossil fuel powered conveyance as well, driven on synthetic rubber tyres over asphalt paved roads
Where are the security guards and why are they NOT doing their jobs?
They are right there and they are performing their jobs adequately, but not brilliantly. They are there to stop art being stolen and to answer visitors questions; they are most certainly not there to wrestle entitled muppets on the floor – they call the police in for that. You’ll notice that none of the art involved in the incidents was stolen or left the building at any time.
