Just Stop Oil fanatics plotting to target Wimbledon in bid to disrupt tennis championships
ECO zealots are planning to glue themselves to Wimbledon’s Centre Court.
Just Stop Oil protesters want to disrupt the high-profile tennis tournament, which starts in two weeks.
They have discussed whether they should glue themselves to the net, the umpire’s chair or even the grass of the court itself.
One told a Sun undercover reporter: “An image of someone’s hand glued to something on Centre Court would be amazing.
“That would be very inspiring. There’s a lot of people up for that.”
Just Stop Oil and other activists have held a string of protests at sporting events in recent months.

They include the Grand National, Derby and April’s Snooker World Championship when a protester threw orange powder over the table.
Wimbledon has featured prominently in discussions over stepping up action in the summer.
One protester said: “Wimbledon is a bit of an open secret. It would be an iconic image. It would be an even better photo than the snooker.”
The group is also issuing a list of 65 magistrates and judges to new members — highlighting those they feel will be more sympathetic to their cause.
