A Just Stop Oil activist was left red-faced after breaking the terms of her bail to target a Labour MP, only to arrive at the wrong address.
Phoebe Plummer, a poster girl for the group of climate fanatics, arrived at Wes Streeting’s door to deliver a letter demanding he resigns should Labour ‘fail to halt all oil and gas licences granted by the Tories since 2021’ if Sir Keir Starmer’s party seize power at the general election, expected to take place this year.
A video, posted by Just Stop Oil to X, formerly Twitter, shows Plummer arriving at said location and boasting about her exploits.
Making reference to being arrested earlier this month for a similar stunt outside Emily Thornberry’s home, she said “it appears there’s no police this time”.
She continued: “Maybe they’ve realised there’s not much harm in delivering a letter to your MP.”
But Streeting delivered a sarcastic response that left the pink-haired activist red-faced.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
- BBC braces for end of licence fee with Tim Davie to set out plan for 'radical transformation'
- Tribunal rules that not every workplace incident involving Muslims will be related to religion
- Germany told to consider temporary migration 'pause' as Scholz's plans blasted as 'weak'
He tweeted: “I don’t know which poor sod got your letter, but that isn’t my house.
“If you want to write to me, you can do so quite easily via Parliament or my constituency office.
“Constituents can also visit my surgery.”
He added that the location on display in the video isn’t even in his borough.
Earlier today, the group demanding a cessation of all new oil and gas licences told Streeting they would be paying him a visit in the afternoon.
Explaining why the Shadow Health Secretary is a target, they said: "We are requesting that Wes do his duty to protect his constituents and use whatever leverage he has to stop the dirty oil and gas extraction that is harming our communities.
“We are asking Wes to commit to resign from the labour party [sic] if, on gaining power, Labour fails to halt all oil and gas licences granted by the Tories since 2021.”
Plummer shot to prominence in 2022 by launching a tin of soup at a Van Gogh painting in 2022.
GB News have edited said video to conceal the location, but Just Stop Oil’s brazen decision to post the footage has drawn criticism over privacy fears for those living in the street.
Broadcaster Matthew Stadlen commented: “This is really disgusting. Revealing a politician's house (and this isn't even Wes Streeting's house) is absolutely unacceptable and deeply shameful. You disgrace your cause.”
