The incident happened at Canning Town Tube station, located in London’s poor east end – a particularly stupid venue for Extinction Rebellion activists to try to pull such a stunt.

London Underground staff had to intervene to prevent the protesters getting a substantial beating. Instead, the staff should have joined in. A good walloping is what these jerks need.

Er -- not that I have strong feelings about this.
