Just Stop Oil protesters have blocked departure gates at Gatwick Airport this morning (Monday, July 29). The activists are causing inconvenience and disruption for travellers going abroad.
Activists from the protest group can be seen sitting on the floor in front of the departure gates at the southern terminal of the airport to block passengers from getting past.
However, in a video posted by Just Stop Oil themselves, it’s not stopping travellers from getting to their flights, as they simply step over the protesters with their bags.
On X, Just Stop Oil has posted: “BREAKING: GATWICK DEPARTURE GATES BLOCKED. 7 Just Stop Oil supporters have disrupted the southern terminal at Gatwick airport, joining 21 other groups in the @_oilkills international uprising.”
Gatwick Airport has been contacted for further information about this incident.
