In a coordinated effort, UK police have arrested at least 27 Just Stop Oil activists across the country. The arrests are linked to alleged plans to disrupt airports during the summer months. The Metropolitan Police conducted multiple raids, seizing technology and arresting individuals at their homes. Among those arrested were 20 activists and six people in London. Daniel was also arrested while staying with his parents. The crackdown has sparked controversy, with some activists describing the actions as indicative of a 'police state.' The police's preemptive measures have been criticized for potentially overstepping legal boundaries.
