Anna Holland is a British climate activist. Born in northwest England, they[a] joined Just Stop Oil in May 2022 and met Phoebe Plummer at a Trafalgar Square roadblock that October. Later that month, the pair threw soup at a painting of Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh, prompting worldwide outrage and earning the pair queerphobic abuse. The reaction from their family prompted Holland to retreat from frontline activism. In September 2024, Christopher Hehir sentenced Holland to 20 months in prison for their part in the act, prompting criticism.
