PROTESTERS have been at the Muller site in Droitwich attempting to cut off the milk supply.
Animal Rebellion has created blockades at the factory, which is one of four key dairy distribution centres.
A picture has been shared with the Worcester News which shows the protesters on top of a Muller lorry.
The targetting of the Pointon Way-based factory is part of a weekend of action from the group, who have been attempting to restrict the UK milk supply in four major cities, protesting through sit-ins in major supermarkets, blocking customers from accessing dairy aisles.
The group have said non-violent protests will continue until the Government meets its two demands:
1. Government supports farmers and fishing communities to move away from animal farming and fishing as part of an urgent and immediate transition to a plant-based food system.
2. Government commits to rewild the freed-up land and ocean as part of a broader programme of wildlife restoration and carbon drawdown.

A spokesperson for Muller UK & Ireland said: “We are disappointed to be targeted by a small number of activists who don’t represent the 96 per cent of adults in Britain who choose milk every week, and we will ensure that supplies are maintained.
“Dairy is affordable and packed with nutrients that benefit our bodies. During a cost of living crisis it is wrong to try to prevent it from reaching families, including vulnerable members of society.”
