Just Stop Oil pays its activists to protest and clog up Britain’s roads as they’re bankrolled by mega-rich

Among them is Just Stop Oil, whose members were this week accused of having "blood on their hands" following the deaths of two women during a demo at the Dartford Crossing.

Aileen Getty, heiress to her grandfather J Paul Getty's oil empire, has personally given more than £900,000 to the cause.

Other donors include film director Adam McKay, who was behind Step Brothers and Don't Look Up, and Rory Kennedy, a daughter of the assassinated senator Robert Kennedy.

The non-profit they all support, the Climate Emergency Fund (CEF), this year granted Just Stop Oil almost £1million.

But because it is not registered as a company or charity in the UK, the funds do not need to be publicly declared and just deposit into an unknown person's bank account.

It is also accepting donations from members of the public through its crowdfunding page - including by cryptocurrency Ethereum.

It says £50 could pay for a young person to travel to an event, while £1,000 would fund accommodation for a week.

A spokesperson for the group confirmed “some people supporting Just Stop Oil do receive a small income”.

This month, Just Stop Oil has blocked roads across England, sparking fury among motorists.

In Knightsbridge, London, the green warriors stopped a sick baby getting to hospital and a fire engine responding to blaze.

Days later, furious members of the public dragged the mob from the tarmac for preventing a van driver from visiting his ill wife.

But most notably, the protesters caused mayhem on the M25 by scaling the 275ft QEII Bridge.

Queues reached at least six miles long while the idiots dangled from the structure - with two even chilling in a hammock.

The duo - later named as Morgan Trowland and Marcus Decker - were accused of having "blood on their hands" after two women died during their eco action.

A stranded motorist, and another to stopped to aid her, were struck by a car as they stood on the hard shoulder of the M20.

Van driver Mark Heap — who had also pulled over — sustained broken back bones and a fractured leg.

'BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS'

Drivers were using the motorway in a bid to avoid huge tailbacks on the M25 caused by the demo at the Dartford Crossing — which links Kent and Essex.

From his hospital bed, Mark, 54, of Stebbing, Essex, said of the protesters: “They may not have intended to hurt anyone, but they’ve got blood on their hands now.

“Without the protest the emergency services might have been able to get there in time to save the women.”

It was said crews took up to 40 minutes to battle through traffic chaos to reach the scene in Swanley, Kent.

One of the women was mum-of-four Lisa Webber, in her late 30s.

The other was "true NHS hero", doctor Habiba Hajallie.

A BMW X5 had apparently careered across three lanes.
