Public conversation: why throw soup and block airports? What is effective in moving Parliament to end global heating? In discussion with Ludi Simpson
Ludi Simpson is in his seventies with a professional career behind him, latterly as Professor of Population Studies at the University of Manchester.
He has been arrested multiple times after actions organised by Just Stop Oil, including for throwing soup at Van Gogh's Sunflowers in the National Gallery. He says that he has caused minor disruption in order to draw attention to the harm to every living thing caused daily by fossil fuel corporations and the politicians they have bought.
He is involved in local community and environmental organisations, and offers his experience to question how we can achieve lasting change to damaging government policy.
