Activists gatecrash British Museum event

Members of the organisation BP or not BP? dressed as Greek statues covered in oil to protest British Petroleum's sponsorship of an exhibition about Troy. The group said the sponsorship deal is like the famous Trojan Horse: “The company sponsors the museum in order to look like a generous gift-giver that cares about culture but, in reality, it’s a cynical attempt to deflect attention from something far more sinister.”A museum spokesperson said it supports the right to peaceful protest.
