Activists from Just Stop Oil disrupted the Pride parade in London by blocking a float sponsored by Coca-Cola to protest against the event taking money from "high-polluting" sponsors. The activists lay down in front of the float and one sprayed a liquid resembling crude oil around it. Police quickly cleared the protesters and arrested seven of them. Just Stop Oil had issued a letter giving Pride a 24-hour ultimatum to meet their demands, including clarity on sponsorship and ethical considerations. The disruption came despite London Mayor Sadiq Khan describing Just Stop Oil as an important pressure group.
