The eco-JUST Stop Oil jobs were pranked again when YouTubers used alarms hidden in helium balloons to ruin a feast.
Two pranksters gave the eco-clowns a taste of their own medicine and spoiled their vegan banquet.

The counter-protest group Just Stop P**sing Everyone Off (JSPEO) held another demonstration against the climate mob on Sunday.
The eco-friendly festival they disrupted promised supporters “100% plant-based” free food, as well as live music, campaign updates and stories from group members “in the resistance.”
But the community meal, promoted in an email to supporters of the divisive group earlier this month, went haywire after being crashed by social media stars Josh Pieters and Archie Manners.
JSPEO, created by the string duo, attended the banquet event at the Heritage and Arts Center in Bow, east London.
Clips posted online showed activists levitating several helium balloons towards the venue’s ceiling while deafening personal security sirens hidden in the gas bags wailed.
Pieters, 29, revealed his group had been working covertly within the climate-conscious force before sparking the series of viral counter-demonstrations.
In a tweet, he said: “We’ve been undercover with Just Stop Oil for the past few days.
“Today they threw a party to ‘celebrate’ their achievements and we were there and gave them a taste of their own medicine.”
Magician Archie, 30, also said of the stunt: “Climate change is the biggest crisis of our generation – but if we’re going to solve it, we have to work together.”
“JSO’s tactics over the past 18 months have not worked; In fact, people across the country are being turned off from this vital cause by their protests.
“The people at JSO mean well; But they’re doing it wrong. Preventing mothers from going to the hospital or spoiling people’s snooker day does nothing to combat climate change.”
They added that a full undercover investigation would be made public on the couple’s YouTube channel.
Just Stop Oil said of the unplanned disruption, “We invited them to dine with us, but the alarm bells they set off at our banquet instead were the perfect metaphor for the urgency of the climate crisis.”
The Sun first revealed on Thursday that the YouTube duo – which has more than 1.5 million subscribers – were behind the “Kettling” stunt.
Each member of the counter-protest group wore identical orange T-shirts similar to those worn by the JSO bullies – but emblazoned with the words “Just stop pissing everyone off.”
Some protesters sat down on the sidewalk as they gave in to the upstart group, who ordered them off the street before police even arrived.
Other JSO supporters tried to persuade their new rivals to join their disruption, claiming the disruption of their protest was an “opportunity for debate”.
But Archie replied: “This time next year is an election. If you don’t like this government, why don’t you run for election?”
And he turned to the demonstrators who were lying on the ground and said: “You are welcome to leave at any time.
“We just want to stop (Just Stop Oil) pissing people off.”
Just Stop Oil claimed the counter-group had dispersed from the scene and continued their march along the busy A201 road, although traffic had eased after rush hour.
Josh and Archie have previously flown a replica Chinese spy balloon over Parliament after US intelligence agencies shot down a real plane earlier this year.
In another video seen by millions online, they also targeted anti-vaccine Piers Corbyn.
