The Extinction Rebellion group closes the largest illegal mine in the UK
- “If the authorities do nothing to stop the illegal coal mine that is killing the planet, we will,” said Extinction Rebellion members.
On Wednesday, the British climate activist has closed the UK's largest coal mine in Wales. Since last year I was operating without a license. Marcus Bailie, activist for Extinction Rebellion, said: “Today what the Welsh Government, the UK Government and the local commissions have failed to achieve is what we have done: close the coal mine.”
To block the mine door, activists use a pink boat to cook the entrance. The new British Public Order Act threatens entrepreneurs to be imprisoned for 51 weeks. “We want to paralyse mining activity until the weekend and we call on the largest number of people to come and help us complete the mine,” Bailie said. Several locals gather to protest. No More Coal organizes a march against the mine on Saturday.
