Fossil Free London and Climate Defiance interrupted the event on Tuesday evening organised by Republicans Overseas UK with chants of “if you drill baby drill, how many will you kill?”
Activists were quickly pushed out of the Antelope pub in Belgravia, central London where the party was held.
Fossil Free London director Robin Wells said the impacts of Trump’s “fossil-fuel obsession” are clear.
“He is willing to jeopardise global stability to benefit the oil industry and enrich himself and his allies,” he said.
“As wildfires rise and typhoons surge, Trump is hellbent on dragging us down with his ‘Drill Baby Drill’ agenda, not just dooming his country to the catastrophic consequences of climate breakdown, but the whole world.”
He added: “The members of Republicans Overseas UK who are here tonight, raising a glass to Trump’s first year, should be ashamed of themselves. We don’t want Trump’s oily imperialism here in the UK.”
