Just Stop Oil has denied any involvement in a prank that occurred at the wedding of George Osborne and his wife, Thea Rogers. During the ceremony, a woman threw orange confetti at the couple, initially leading to speculation that she was a protester from the environmental campaign group known for their attention-grabbing stunts. However, Just Stop Oil released a statement stating that they were not responsible for the incident. The group acknowledged the use of orange confetti and expressed appreciation if it was intended as a form of protest, though they maintained they were not involved. They commended the peaceful nature of the act, which garnered significant media attention for Just Stop Oil’s cause.

Just Stop Oil has previously targeted events such as Wimbledon, the second Ashes Test at Lord’s, the Premiership rugby final at Twickenham, and the World Snooker Championship with their protests. At the wedding in Bruton, Somerset, the woman approached the couple with a bag of confetti as they were leaving St Mary’s Church. The couple appeared confused, and their aides intervened before the woman moved away without saying anything. Mr. Osborne’s spokesperson dismissed the incident as a protest and confirmed that no words were exchanged.

Before disassociating from the woman, Just Stop Oil had tweeted a message to Mr. Osborne, stating that he looked good in orange. Several MPs, including shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves, criticised the alleged stunt. Reeves expressed her disapproval of Just Stop Oil, considering their actions as disruptive and counterproductive to their cause of tackling climate change. She emphasised the importance of engaging in policy discussions instead of resorting to disruptive tactics.

The confetti incident occurred shortly after Mr. Osborne reported online harassment and the circulation of a “poison pen” email targeting wedding guests, politicians, and journalists. The couple believes they know the identity of the individual responsible for the email, but the motive behind the harassment remains unclear. The incident did not appear to have a direct connection to Mr. Osborne, and it is described as part of an ongoing campaign of abuse and cyberbullying.

The wedding in Bruton was attended by notable figures, including former Prime Minister David Cameron, former BBC correspondent Jon Sopel, and former health secretary Matt Hancock. The bride, Thea Rogers, had previously served as a Treasury adviser to Mr. Osborne during his tenure as chancellor. After leaving politics, Mr. Osborne went on to become the editor of the Evening Standard and currently serves as the chairman of the British Museum.
