Arrr mateys! Two scallywags be sailin' to the British Library in London, aimin' to plunder the Magna Carta for their cause against fossil fuels. They be demandin' an end to the black gold that powers the ships of today! Avast ye, climate activists!

In a jolly good show of environmental activism, two sprightly lasses decided to target the original Magna Carta, that ancient piece of parchment from the United Kingdom, all in the name of climate change! Rev. Sue Parfitt, a seasoned 82 years, and Judy Bruce, 85 and retired from teaching biology, were caught red-handed by London's Metropolitan Police as they attacked a glass case at the British Library. Using a hammer and chisel, these fine ladies from the Just Stop Oil group made a valiant attempt to damage the case, but alas, the Magna Carta emerged unscathed.The rascals justified their actions by claiming that climate breakdown is the real threat to freedom and lawfulness, not some old document. They want to end the world's reliance on fossil fuels and are ready to shiver their timbers to make it happen. Despite the interruption by the library's security team, the Treasures Gallery was closed until further notice.The Magna Carta, a 13th-century English treaty, is a symbol of the rule of law and the foundation of Western democracy. Only four original copies exist, with two held in the British Library, one in Salisbury Cathedral, and the last in Lincoln Castle.
