Climate activists interrupt a match on one of Wimbledon's show courts, scattering orange confetti and jigsaw pieces in their latest protest targeting major sporting events
Climate activists have interrupted a match on one of Wimbledon's show courts, scattering orange confetti and jigsaw pieces in their latest protest targeting major sporting events.
A man sat down near the net and removed his jacket while a woman was escorted away by officials. One fan shouted"Get off the court" as spectators booed and jeered."The supporters threw environmentally friendly orange confetti glitter and jigsaw pieces onto the court, before being removed," it said."Play was briefly delayed whilst marshals picked up the pieces."
"I'm not prepared to let our politicians wreck everything and leave the next generation to pick up the pieces."
