Bit of a different L (debated posting this in sideshows). Meet Chiara Sarti (she/they), a PhD student of computer science at the University of Cambridge.
This stunning and brave individual made waves last year, spraying the 15th century Kings College with orange paint as part of a Just Stop Oil protest.
Since then, Chiara has become the organiser for Youth Demand, which is Just Stop Oil joining up with Palestinian Action, broadening in scope to oppose genocide by calling for "a two way arms embargo on Israel AND an end to new oil and gas drilling". Their recent actions have been switching paint colours to spray the Labour Party's HQ with red paint, and then protest outside Keir Starmer's house, placing children's shoes on his front steps to symbolise dead Palestinian children.
As a reminder, Keir Starmer is leader of the opposition, and is not currently in charge. Additionally Labour managed to pass an opposition day motion to call for a humanitarian ceasefire and condemning killing. Also, Keir Starmer has two school aged children.
The "L" in this case is Chiara going on a variety of shows to defend the group's actions while being completely unprepared for the very obvious counter arguments, for example "if it's ok to protest outside someone's house if you disagree with them, does that mean people can go protest outside your house if they disagree with you?".
A lot of the great British public aren't even realising Chiara is supposed to be a woman
