The controversial climate activists have issued a call to England captain Harry Kane to wear an armband carrying their message at the World Cup in Qatar.

Later that year, suffragette Anne Hunt entered the National Portrait Gallery and hacked away at a painting of Thomas Carlyle, one of the gallery's trustees.

A judge said the 18th-century frame had been"permanently damaged" by the stunt, as Louis McKechnie was imprisoned for three weeks and fellow activist Emily Brocklebank received a 21-day sentence, suspended for six months.Mr De Koning said Just Stop Oil activists were"not going to be intimidated by potential prison time"."In 20 years' time, who knows if that's still the case for millions of people.

"We've tried protesting outside the Chinese embassy and doing other things and it just doesn't get coverage. She is the executive director of a group called The Climate Emergency Fund , which distributes money from wealthy donors to"support disruptive protest". He added that if action isn't taken to stop new oil and gas projects then"millions more people are going to die and can't appreciate that artwork"."We're not even going to have a habitable planet for this artwork and for us to live on," Mr De Koning said.

Just Stop Oil has now urged Harry Kane to wear a captain's armband displaying its message at the World Cup in Qatar, which has one of the world's largest natural gas reserves and oil reserves.
