King Charles Face Smeared With Cake in London

Two protesters threw a custard pie in the face of King Charles III waxwork at Madame Tussauds inside the London museum in London. These two people were immediately arrested by the police. The climate activists are demanding the government to stop new oil and gas licenses. In a statement, the protestors said, "We are here because we seek to protect our freedoms and rights, because we seek to protect this green and pleasant land which is the inheritance of us all. The science is clear. The demand is simple: just stop new oil and gas. It's a piece of cake." This is not the first time protestors have done something strange. First it was cake smeared on the Mona Lisa in Paris, France, then tomato soup splattered across a Van Gogh in London, and then, on Sunday, mashed potatoes hurled at a Monet in a museum in Germany.
After throwing the items, the protestors glued themselves to the wall. But the police unglued them and arrested the protestors. None of the paintings were harmed, as all were encased in protective glass. But the actions went viral and set off an international storm of outrage and debate. The protestors said that people focus on preserving useless paintings, but our earth is so important. Despite this, governments are not at all bothered to conserve the earth. They wanted to draw attention to this, because no one pays attention to protests and advocacy. Were the activists misguided attention-seekers who harmed the climate movement’s legitimacy while doing nothing to help the Earth? Or did they force a spotlight onto everything at risk if significant climate action isn’t taken fast? Let us know in the comments.
