Headline: Protest in Support of Imprisoned ‘Walney16’ Activists in London
Caption:
Hundreds of climate activists stage a sit-down protest outside the Royal Courts of Justice in London.
The Court of Appeal is considering convictions of 16 climate activists brought by 16 JSO activists who claim their sentences were 'manifestly excessive' after receiving combined prison sentences of over 40 years.
The activists have been dubbed the 'Walney16' after cross bench peer Lord Walney published a report on political violence that stated organisations like Just Stop Oil and Palestine Action should be banned in a similar way to terrorist organisations
