Well this is really a bit too much Destroying private property and Breaking into a place like an Airport by cutting a security fence is really very serious and I hope they receive maximum jail time and a Big Fine these people are a Disgrace !
These scum are not protesters, they're hooligans and vandals. The law should treat them as such. Whilst they have a valid point, they completely undermine their cause by their despicable actions.
