Now the “last generation” is just being ridiculous: climate extremist Henning Jeschke (23) stuck himself to the table in court! Judicial officers then had to carry him and the table out of the hall…
Jeschke is one of the founders of the “Last Generation”, took part in the hunger strike and was sentenced to daily rates for being stuck. On Thursday he stood again for a blockade in front of the Tiergarten district court.
But instead of a conviction, a new nerve action followed! A video shows Jeschke filming himself from his backpack – forbidden in court! Suddenly he jumps up and says: “I’m sorry that I have to interrupt you again, I’m sorry that I have to do this.” And further: “I’ve glued myself to the table here. I’ll broadcast the whole thing live on the Internet.” His left hand is superglued to the green tabletop. The judge leaves the room immediately. The 23-year-old holds a one and a half minute climate monologue, then a judicial officer pushes him on the table without a word and the recording stops.
What you can no longer see in the video: After 20 minutes, the judge continues the hearing. Jeschke still glued on. Later, judicial officers carry the climate sticker and the table out of the hall!
The hearing was interrupted again.
