❗️UPDATE❗️
All rebels have been released! @McDonaldsUK stores are shutting across the country due to lack of supplies and it looks like it’s only going to get worse for them! This is direct action and it doesn’t end today. Keep the momentum up, let’s think big and brainstorm.
Stopped at a McDonald’s to see if they had food but due to the @RebelsAnimal protests they are turning everyone away because they have absolutely nothing! #mcdonalds#animalrebellion
Update from Hemel Hempstead: Harley speaks about how the Hemel Hempstead site lasted 21 hours and people are currently doing police station support for those in custody.

Update from Coventry: We came to our closing time of 10am, having successfully blocked McDonald's distribution here for 30 hours straight! We packed up with no worries and even managed to get away with all of our kit. Until next time ;)

How much disruption did we actually cause? Well, we blocked 4 sites for a total of 95 hours. According to our research, about 20 trucks come in and out of these centres every hour. Therefore, we disrupted 1,900 trucks over the course of our action. Not bad eh! #AnimalRebellion
From the #McLibel 2, Helen Steel and Dave Morris, who bravely took on McDonald's in one of the most famous legal cases in British history:
Blimey.. what an inspirational action. Well done to all those involved.
Solidarity from us

Not bad indeed! And maybe just the beginning? It's a long road to a #PlantBasedFoodSystem, but Animal Rebellion are taking the first steps. Come join us and help build a just and sustainable future for all!
Update from Coventry: Friendly local James has brought down porridge for the rebels who have been blocking McDonalds for 28 hours now! Spirits are high
Yet today when Animal Rebellion blockade McDonalds there’s not a Home Secretary or PM in sight? Almost like McDonalds don’t own the government, unlike Murdoch.
Animal Rebellion is stopping workers from accessing four sites across England using trucks, beacons and bamboo towers with people locked into concrete blocks at the base, said the climate and animal justice movement Saturday.
