Youth Demand are rallying members to cause disruption at the huge event on July 17

Just Stop Oil and pro-Palestine protesters are plotting to cause mayhem for Keir Starmer and King Charles at the State Opening of Parliament.

Youth Demand, a new organisation formed of different protest groups, have warned they plan to target Starmer as Labour's new Prime Minister.


The group, which sparked outrage for protesting outside his home, are rallying members to cause disruption at the huge event on July 17.

King Charles will set out the new government's legislative agenda.

But the group have boasted in an email seen by GB News that they plan to cause chaos. It was sent at 9.10pm on Saturday evening.

There are fears the King's journey to Parliament may be blocked by demonstrators or they target the convey itself. Or try to break into Parliament and disrupt the sitting.

They have targeted Starmer because of his stance on Palestine which they do not think is strong enough.

In a rallying cry email, they said: "The Tories have collapsed, and Labour have won the sham election.

"But Keir Starmer does not represent us: He has used the rigged two-party system to slither his way into Downing Street despite one of the lowest voter turnouts in 75 years.

"Millions of young people across the country refused to vote for Labour and their deadly policies backing genocide in Palestine, and across the globe by driving climate disasters.

"Their success at this election is the ultimate proof that the system is f****d and we have no option but to resist.

"When our so-called 'leaders' don't have the guts or the moral backbone to even lift a finger for the people of Palestine after months of public outcry, it becomes obvious ordinary people need to take back our power.

"We have to force the change we need ourselves through causing disruption impossible for them to ignore.

"Next Wednesday 17th July is the State Opening of Parliament. In an outdated, farcical parade the king will ride in his (literal) golden carriage to usher in the new Labour government.

"Not in our name will Starmer be welcomed as the new head of a blood-stained parliament in pomp and glory.

"So, Youth Demand will be disrupting the State Opening of Parliament. We disrupt because it is our duty to fight back in every way we non-violently can, and because we refuse to despair, but instead are full of hope that another way is possible.

"Join us at 9.30am in Victoria Embankment Gardens to stand with us in resistance!"
