Just Stop Oil has vowed to plague the UK with more climate change protests after accusing the Prime Minister of "genocide".
After Rishi Sunak outlined his net zero plans yesterday, the climate change group claimed that "democracy is broken, and we need action now".
It comes as the eco-warriors caused chaos across Britain with slow marches, which have been met by angry members of the public.
Writing on social media, the activists said: "While Rishi Sunak outlines out his latest net zero plan to ensure the deaths of millions, 6 supporters of Just Stop Oil had their case dismissed today after slow marching in May against new oil and gas.

"It's time our unelected Prime Minister sees sense. Democracy is broken, and we need action now."
Just Stop Oil has faced backlash from those affected by disruption after members of the public pushed, shoved, shouted at and even drove their cars into the protesters over recent weeks.
The Prime Minister held a press conference yesterday as he set out how the Government needs to alter its net zero strategy to accommodate for the cost-of-living crisis.
As part of his announcement, Sunak said the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles from 2030 has been pushed back to 2035.
