4:47Now PlayingLBC's Helen Hoddinott counts down Just Stop Oil's five most memorable demonstrations - from cricket match protests to the infamous Stonehenge debacle.
Environmental campaign group Just Stop Oil said it will stop its disruptive direct action, with a final protest in Parliament Square on April 26.
The group say they are "hanging up the high vis" now that their demand to end new oil and gas is government policy.
"It is the end of soup on Van Goghs, cornstarch on Stonehenge and slow marching in the streets," they said in a statement.
"But it is not the end of trials, of tagging and surveillance, of fines, probation and years in prison."
The group added: "As corporations and billionaires corrupt political systems across the world, we need a different approach.
"We are creating a new strategy, to face this reality and to carry our responsibilities at this time. Nothing short of a revolution is going to protect us from the coming storms."
They said they will be holding a final Just Stop Oil protest in Parliament Square on April 26.
In the past three years, Just Stop Oil activists have been arrested for numerous direct action protests, including disrupting a West End performance of The Tempest, blocking roads, pouring paint on a robot at a Tesla shop and spraying orange powder on Stonehenge.
Earlier this month, six protesters, including the group's co-founder Roger Hallam, won reductions at the Court of Appeal in their jail terms for their roles in Just Stop Oil protests in 2022.
