Moment Just Stop Oil protesters disrupt Premiership Rugby final

Two Just Stop Oil activists have disrupted a Premiership Rugby final by running onto the pitch and releasing bags with orange paint.

Footage captured by the group shows the demonstrators bypassing stewards and running to the middle of the pitch, wearing bright orange t-shirts shirts with the group’s name visible on the front.

The final between Saracens and Sale Sharks was halted for around two minutes as the two were tackled and dragged off the field of play, met with a chorus of boos from rugby fans watching at Twickenham.
