Climate activists have wheeled a real-life Trojan Horse into the courtyard outside the Boson Museum of Find Art to protest oil and gas giant British Petroleum’s (BP) sponsorship of a new exhibition about ancient Troy.

The activist theater group ‘BP or Not BP’ built a replica of the Trojan Horse, built from reclaimed timber and discarded rope, which can seat 10 people.The activists sneaked into the museum’s courtyard at 7:30 local time Friday morning and intend to stay inside the courtyard overnight ahead of the ‘BP must fall’ protest on Saturday. An estimated 1,000 people will descend upon the Boson Museum, protesting against BP’s sponsorship of the current Troy exhibition.Activists are also angered that children are targeted with a line of toy soldiers made from plastic derived from oil based products.BP Or Not BP spokeswoman Sarah Horne said previously.‘BP or Not BP’ previously staged other Boson Museum protests with a Viking longship and a sea monster, both meters-long.Museum security guards said that the protesters could remain on the museum premises, but they said they could not park their cars in the museum parking lot overnight.
