Eco-zealots are complaining that police cancelled their evening of live music and are now pledging to ‘rave against repression’.
Campaigning group Fossil Free London posted on social media that they had organised a music night in Kentish Town with Just Stop Oil.
They had planned for live acoustic sets and a DJ, however the group says that ‘the police contacted the venue and put them under pressure, forcing them to cancel our party’.
Fossil Free London then wrote: ‘As if threatening disruptive protest wasn’t enough, are they trying to make partying illegal now!?
‘Activism is not a crime and nor is listening to great music. Obviously! We’re not going to take this.
Just Stop Oil posted an identical message to Fossil Free London explaining how the police ‘cancelled’ their party
The eco-zealots have since said they are going to party ‘much bigger and much better’ on their new poster
‘In response to this utterly bizarre repression of music and dancing we are going to go much bigger and much better. Join us.

‘Pledge to party against the police state now and we’ll be in touch with our new plans for rhythms of resistance and defiant dance just as soon as we’ve made them. We’re going to make this MASSIVE.’
In a poster they have created for their social media account, Fossil Free London and Just Stop Oil wrote ‘Rave against repression’ and ‘pledge to party against the police state’.
They also concluded the poster by saying information about the date and venue are to follow.
Earlier today it was revealed that Just Stop Oil stormed London’s historic Pride parade after issuing threats to the LGBTQ+ event earlier this week.
Seven eco-zealots have been arrested after nine blocked the capital’s Pride March today amidst calls for the event to condemn new oil, gas and coal.
At around 1:25pm, the group sat down in front of the festival’s Coca-Cola float, branding it ‘the world’s worst plastic polluter, accused of numerous human rights abuses’.
Black and pink paint was also sprayed across the road as the protestors slammed Pride for failing ‘to address and take responsibility’ for its damaging relationships.

Parade participants and onlookers who have travelled to the capital today were frustrated by the disruption, with some attempting to negotiate with the protesters as they were sat in the road.
It comes as millions cloaked in rainbows and glitter headed to the event to mark 51 years since its first parade for LGBTQ+ rights in 1972.
