If the pianting was protected by a glass screen, then I'm happy.
But I do not remember any such screens in the London National gallery the last time I was there.
They didn't even have such a protection for Velazquez's Venus (my favourite painting) which was attacked with a razor by a suffragette in the early 1900's.

I can see now that it has a big crack in the middle. Disgraceful that someone would do that to a painting

Director of the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands was a bit peed off and asking himself that if they want to make a statement, why not glue themselves to Max Verstappen's car he has a point, and it perfectly touches on the ridiculous of the actions by these muppets.

I've been kicked of Twitter for 12 hours because I suggested they should be tarred and feathered.

I'm back on now that I've deleted the Tweet.

Considering some of the shizzle they let ride on there I feel hard done by.

I liked something I made up the other night about not being right just because the majority agree with you. In hindsight it was a great comment

And what did those silly little girls achieve apart from a criminal record which may haunt them? Absolutely nothing except a lifetime of ridicule, and embarrassed family and friends.
There are responsible ways to make protests. To do something idiotic diminishes your credibility and undermines your crusade.
"Thick as a two-short-plank-sh!t-sandwich!" comes to mind, as my Dad would have said.

See my Twitter link two comments above yours. ‘Responsible protests’ have not worked.

Neither do irresponsible protests that are acts of vandalism. And I cannot understand why anti-oil protesters react against sunflowers. As well as providing us with oil they are great for nature providing insects and small mammals with food.
