As we say in Glasgow, diddies, i would just leave them, close up and go home for the night. No publicity except for the fact they will be hungry and thirsty. Oh just call your rich daddy to come get you in his big posh car.
Often thought we should bring back medieval pillories on the village common (or empty plinth in Trafalgar Square in this case). Then these anti-social idiots once removed from their picture frame could spend some time standing bent over with head and hands immobilised while the public pelts them with rotten veg & fruit.
The only positive I can see here is that they glued themselves to the frame, not the actual artwork. Although this still massively devalues the art (original frames add a lot of value) it's not as bad as destroying it; super glue would be incredibly harmful to oil paint I imagine. They're prats though, there are better ways to protest without turning the people you need to convince against your cause.
Why were there not security guards waiting to deal with these anarchists. In Russia 🇷🇺 terrorists like this are sent to prison for retraining into responsible members of society
The solution is simple – fine each protestor 10,000 sterling, garnishing wages or seizing assets as needed, a live time ban from all museums and galleries for life world wide and a jail term wouldn't go amiss either. You want to protest go ahead but it doesn't justify vandalism and trespassing.
Do you support the actions of Just Stop Oil?

Oh look, half empty spray cans. Now what could I do with those?
And this protest is going to accomplish what, exactly? 🤥

Leave them glued….it.will soon turn into a stretch position….they will soon stop…
What c** just leave them there and let the public deal with them
Simply close that part of the gallery to the public, then ignore the lunatics and leave them there all night.
They might be against oil but they're happy using plastic bags!
When are those two posh ponce’s going to get a fecking job???.

At least they couldn't run off when security came at them with a baseball bat.
Coat the frames with Oil the glue won't stick.
So do they not realize glue has petroleum in it lol
I'd just close that room from the public and leave them there till they begged for help.🤣🤣🤣then bill them for the damage. TWATS.
I plant trees and support the protests most of the time if not all! But this is uber stupid.
What a waste of glue. Reduce. Recycle. Reuse.
I went to univaaarsitey and now I'm glued to a painting… Snort snort snort!
