LAWN DISORDER

A CHELSEA Flower Show visitor sprayed Just Stop Oil protesters with a hose after they had thrown orange paint over a display.

Three women climbed over a rope barrier yesterday to stage a protest at the RBC Brewin Dolphin Garden, designed by Paul Hervey-Brookes.

The incident prompted some visitors to shout abuse, with one man heard saying: "Oh no, you morons - all you're doing is ruining them, you prats."

Others at the London site could be heard shouting for security before a woman grabbed a hose and doused the protesters with water. But some yelled in support, one saying: "I'll join."
