'We did it for everyone': Climate protestors spared jail for Barclays windows smashing. Extinction Rebellion activists who caused £100,000 of damage by smashing windows of a Barclays bank in London have been spared jail - as a protestor called the violent stunt a 'message of love'. Zoe Cohen, 52, said she tried 40 years of lawful action with no result while speaking from a pink lectern outside Southwark Crown Court. She was sentenced alongside five other women after being convicted of criminal damage for smashing the windows of the bank's London headquarters on April 7 last year. During the sentence, Judge David Milne called the protest at Barclays a 'stunt' and a 'gimmick' and said smashing their windows is not going to stop climate change. #climatechange #climateprotestor #activist #barclays #extinctionrebellion #uknews #dailymail Original Article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11685071/Extinction-Rebellion-activists-caused-100k-damage-smashing-windows-Barclays-SPARED-jail.html Original Video: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-2864785/Video-Climate-protesters-spared-jail-smashing-Barclays-windows.html Daily Mail Homepage: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ Daily Mail Facebook: https://facebook.com/dailymail Daily Mail IG: https://instagram.com/dailymail Daily Mail Snap: https://www.snapchat.com/discover/Daily-Mail/8392137033 Daily Mail Twitter: https://twitter.com/MailOnline Daily Mail Pinterest: https://pinterest.co.uk/dailymail Get the free Daily Mail mobile app: https://dailymail.co.uk/mobile
