Right now, Taylor Swift is globetrotting, bringing the Eras Tour to fans far and wide! If whatever Swift is doing at any given moment is the main quest, then a side quest has reared its head over in the UK with the superstar's luxury plane. You see, two people "gained access" to (read: broke into) the Stansted Airport in London. They had two fire extinguishers filled with orange paint and were prepared to vandalize some of the planes stationed at the airport.

The two represent a climate activist group called "Just Stop Oil." They even have a fancy website! (Which I won't link to just to be safe, but you're an easy Google search away from it.) The group's mission statement is stated plainly on the website's front page.
"Our Government doesn't give a f-- about its responsibilities. The country is in ruins. You know it, I know, they know it. That means it's up to us to come together and be the change we need. [They] need bold, un-ignorable action that confronts the fossil fuel elites. We refuse to comply with a system which is killing millions around the world, and that's why we have declared airports a site of nonviolent civil resistance.
We can't do this alone, we have a plan for this Summer, are you willing [to] help make this happen?"
Just Stop Oil had previously vandalized Stonehenge. They even have an X (formerly Twitter) account bragging about vandalizing Swift's plane.
