Just Stop Oil disrupt same Wimbledon court with more orange confetti during Katie Boulter’s match ➡️ Get more via iPaperSport
In a Just Stop Oil statement, Mr Ward said: “I don’t like making a racket, but I don’t want my grandchildren, nieces and nephews to suffer. Right now, millions of people are being forced outside of the conditions necessary to support human life.”
“I can’t let this happen. Our government is courting disaster. I’ve had five meetings with my MP, Chris Grayling, and he simply doesn’t get it. He doesn’t seem to understand the warnings from the United Nations, from the International Energy Agency and from the governments’ own climate change committee.
“I have no choice but to get the message out in whatever way I can. I’m retired and want to enjoy my retirement, but I feel I have no choice but to take action. I’ve tried everything else.” Earlier in the day, Deborah Wilde, 68, a retired teacher from London and Simon Milner-Edwards, 66, a retired musician from Manchester, both got onto Court 18 just after 2pm. That was during Grigor Dimitrov’s win over Sho Shimabukuro.
On both occasions, the protesters appear to have concealed the confetti within Wimbledon puzzle boxes. The first box is a 1000-piece puzzle of Roger Federer playing on Centre Court, and is available for £22 on the Wimbledon website – but is currently out of stock.
