XR activists demand government blocks development of North Sea oil field
A DOZEN Extinction Rebellion (XR) activists occupied the UK government’s offices in Edinburgh today to demand it block the development of an oil field in the North Sea.
The climate campaigners blocked the entrance to the Queen Elizabeth House building to protest against the plans for the Cambo oil field off Shetland.
The Stop Cambo Scotland group wants Prime Minister Boris Johnson to halt the expected approval of the oil field just months before Glasgow hosts the United Nations Cop26 climate conference.
