Starmer ordered to return millions to eco-zealot Labour donor after Just Stop Oil outrage

Dale Vince claims rain stopped play at Wimbledon more than protesters Furious energy minister Andrew Bowie has hit out at Labour for accepting money from a leading eco-zealot after Just Stop Oil protesters disrupted another major sporting event. The fanatics today tried to ruin the Open golf championship having earlier this summer disrupted test cricket, Wimbledon and the British Formula 1 grand prix. The high profile attacks on major events go along side regular attempts to block roads and vandalise buildings and works of art. Starmer and the Labour Party have accepted donations from millionaire Dale Vince who is also bankrolling Just Stop Oil extremists. Earlier this week, energy minister Grant Shapps demanded Labour pay for the damage done to his department’s building by Just Stop Oil and now Mr Bowier has followed suit.

Their political wing, The Labour Party, is clearly all too happy to oblige – adopting their policies as their own. “Enough is enough. Slippery Starmer needs to return the millions of pounds received from their chief bankroller Dale Vince and disavow their lunacy.” At around 12.20pm the extremist group tweeted: “Three Just Stop Oil Supporters have disrupted The British Open – they demand that the UK government halts all new oil and gas projects.” Security staff helped by American golfer Billy Horschel helped remove them.
