Some vegan activists spill liters of milk in UK shops and supermarkets. The incident occurred on Saturday, October 15 and went viral on social networks.
The young people joined the NGO “Animal Rebellion” and the action was to protest animal abuse.
The day before, on October 14, and also in protest, the “Just Stop Oil” group threw tomato soup at Van Gogh’s painting Sunflowers in London. The incident took place at the National Gallery in London where they professed to be against climate change.
The NGO “Animal Rebellion” shared on its social network photos and videos of activists spilling liters of milk in supermarket aisles.
Stores such as Waitrose, Whole Foods and Marks and Spencer in London, Manchester, Norwich and Edinburgh, are markets located in the same area where they do the act.
“This is not something that came to us out of the blue: the need for a transition to a plant-based food system was widely accepted by the scientific community. This will be a victory for our climate, livestock, wildlife, farmers, economy and everyone,” the organization tweeted.
Milk Pour is currently happening all over the UK. All are caring individuals who are calling on the government to give us a livable future, a #Plant-Based Future

In particular, the video that went viral was of two women appearing at the Waitrose supermarket in Edinburgh. In it, he can be seen picking up a milk bottle from a shelf and then spilling its contents onto the floor. This is while a third person stands in front of the fridge with a sign that says the following message: “A future based on plants”.
They also reflected on such an act, adding, “Pouring milk is controversial, but that’s what makes it a good deed. This is not a spontaneous action, but a decision that is carefully considered throughout the organization. This one has created an international conversation about solutions to the climate crisis.”
In another picture, another activist throws milk at a window. And two people spilled milk on the floor and on the meat counter at a Marks and Spencer supermarket.
Simultaneously, other protesters were filmed emptying bottles onto the cheese table at Fortnum and Mason stores.
“Supporting farmers in the transition to a sustainable plant-based food system” is the motto of the activists who took the initiative.
Finally, and to date, there is no official information about the arrests of the protesters.
