Leave them there till they are begging to be released as they are hungry and want to have a poo or pee. Government is useless they will help them and get a small fine or suspended sentence and walk out of court laughing. As an ex cop seen it happening often . Disgusting
Nothing a jar full of Bull Ants wouldn't fix to prevent future glueings 🐜
Ok, unstick them and off to the courts🤨
Hacksaw the hands off they won’t do it again
Dumb and dumber. Take their bags and make sure they don't have phones them. Then leave them where they are. The gallery no doubt has portable screens they can put in front so they can't be seen.
We'd call that domestic terrorism, a few short years ago.
Leave them there. Added attraction as they slowly whither away
Leave them there and just ignore them
Hey news media, journalists,politicians,teachers. STOP the Climate Crisis b/s.STOP dramatising a naturally changing climate whenever there is a weather event. STOP giving Climate Catastrophists air-time.The fear mongering & brainwashing that drives these kids to do this is on you

Put more glue, make them stay for 7 days without a cellphone
Yawn! 🥱
Arrested them for public disturbance and damaging private property
sick people...🙄. Go and fight with your government, not a painting 🤮🤢
Just make it so they cannot leave
Why don't they glue themselves to some fossil fuel instead of vandalising a masterpiece, which they could never have produced in a million years.
Leave them there.
I would leave them glued to it for a week.
What a silly thing to do.
I’m sure that will really help their cause.. can’t wait to see how that turns out 🤡
Globalist sympathisers. I wonder which of the billionaires benefitting from Western deindustrialization funded their bone-headed activities?
Leave them there to rot!
lol just clear the room & leave them there 😂
How stupid can two people be? 🙄
Ignoring a temper tantrum usually works. Just wait until they need the restroom and watch them beg for help.
Just leave them there for a while, the sweet off the hands will get the glue off
Dramatic....
Parasites.
Isn’t glue made from fossil fuels 🤷♂️
Just leave them there!
They should have glued their heads to the wall and left them there.
Wonder how they decided witch hand to glue!
Great,haha
Not a good look for private education
A wasted generation. Sad.
Remove their bags and leave them there. See how long they last. Wankers.
These anarchists should be stopped and face the consequences of misbehaving and ignoring the rule of law.
