Locked and Loaded: Police Foil New Generation's Glue Action at the Bundestag
Youthful Demonstrators Engage in Adhesive Protests Within the Federal Diet Assembly
Hang up that glue kids, the cops have snuffed out your democratic demand! The New Generation activists, seeking a week of charged conversation with Members of Parliament, planned to make a grand entrance—gluing themselves to the Bundestag's underground garage entrance. But the boys in blue didn't wait for the glue to dry; they nabbed 20 of them in a flash!
The braveheart activists, roughly 20 strong, attempted their glue-tacular action at the ungodly hour of 8:30 am, but alas, the police was quicker on their feet and snapped the defiant rebels in irons. The force deployed 80 officers to maintain order and safeguard the parliamentary roost from troublemakers. Thankfully, the parliamentary sessions did not suffer a hiccup.
The New Generation on their website claimed their activists aimed to pepper the parliamentary sessions with their presence and engage in meaningful discourse with elected officials about the bleak state of our democracy. They had every intention of confronting the late-arriving Members of Parliament with their civic duties.
The New Generation appears to be the reincarnation of the Letzte Generation, a vocal climate activist mob that's been making headlines with eye-catching street blockades[2]. The group demands a non-violent, democratic revolution and has been drumming up a week-long tumult for more democracy[3]. Their latest stunt, codenamed "Un block the print house," ended in failure[4].
