PROTESTORS have been detained by police after the Queen’s Jubilee parade suffered a security breach on Thursday, June 2.

Four male protestors were tackled to the floor by police after breaking through barriers at The Mall ahead of the Queen’s guard ahead of the Trooping of the Colour jubilee ceremony.

Two of the men were detained by police according to reports. Footage from Sky News showed one man wearing a crown as he was cuffed by Met Police officers.

While another was dragged away by police as shocked onlookers awaited the royals.

According to the Daily Mail, the protestors belong to the Animal Rebellion activist group, who were spotted carrying ‘Reclaim Royal Land’ placards.

Some of them have accused the monarchy of having a ‘Royal disregard for all life’, according to the Metro.

Animal Rebellion describes itself as “a mass volunteer movement using nonviolent civil disobedience to help the transition to a plant-based food system.”

Beau King Houston, an activist for Animal Rebellion, told the Metro: “The royal family has had decades to lead the way on a just transition to plant-based farming and has failed to do so. This transition is common sense and simple, we all win.

“76% of currently farmed land could be rewilded and absorb carbon from the atmosphere. This would restore nature, spare billions of animals, and present a solution to the climate emergency, all in one act.”

Earlier, well-wishers from all over the world have taken to social media on Thursday, June 2 to pay tribute to The Queen as she celebrates her platinum jubilee, while thousands of fans of the 96-year-old lined the London streets.
