A JUST Stop Oil poster girl has vowed to be arrested seven times and wants to be jailed again.
Pink-haired leader Phoebe Plummer, 22, said she is “going for at least five arrests and hoping for six or seven over three weeks.”
Just Stop Oil is due to launch another wave of protests this week.
And Ms Plummer reckons weak protest laws mean other group members who stop traffic with slow marches can keep getting away with just a slap on the wrist.
She told an undercover reporter: “There’s no risk of custodial time. The harshest punishment is a small fine. We need to grab this opportunity while we have it and it’s such a minor offence.”

She has already been jailed several times for protests and threw a tin of soup over a Van Gogh painting at the National Gallery, London, last year.
The activist described dangerous action on the M25 which police chiefs said had put lives at risk as “f*** brilliant” - but said the focus for the foreseeable future was slow marching and targeting events.
She said: “Slow marching because it’s more entry-level for people. My first action was smashing up petrol stations.
“It was f**g brilliant what we did on the M25, shutting it down for four days.
“I was part of that. I went to prison for that last year.”
Plummer even reckoned the public would soon be fully onside with the group.
She added that the plan was “goading the government”.
She said: “It then puts them into a real political crisis where the crackdown on us even harder in which case they are already breaching my human rights conventions and if they make marching illegal that is a serious attack on fundamental human rights."
She said other big events were being targeted as well.
She said: “I’m excited. I am excited to go out and get arrested.

“We will continue to do cultural actions. Cultural actions like the snooker and disrupting Les Miserables.”
Another activist said: “We want to fill the prisons. It’s going to be amazing.”
