Red Card Allianz:
Saturday 14th June
Allianz Stadium,
Twickenham
On Saturday 14th June, we’ll be out in force at the English Premiership Rugby Final at Twickenham to create pressure on the fossil fuel industry. Rugby’s insurance company sponsors are enabling the same extreme weather which is flooding rugby clubs (and wrecking people’s lives around the world). We are going to expose this absurd situation and the insurance industry will not enjoy it!
There will be fun and creativity, but to reach 82,000 fans we need loads of people. You don’t have to be an experienced or confident outreacher, as there are loads of leaflets (and tasty beermats) to hand out. But there will also be moments of engagement and conversation.

What’s the weak spot in the fossil fuel death star?
Insurance. Without insurance the oil, gas and coal criminals can’t afford to dig and drill for the oily products cooking our planet.
Extinction Rebellion’s Insure Our Survival campaign is pouring direct action pressure on insurers to stop insuring all new fossil fuel projects. Thousands of us took to the streets for powerful weeks of action in London, across the UK, and across the world in February and October 2024 and January 2025.
And it’s working. Giant insurers Zurich and leading underwriters Probitas announced they were pulling out of new oil and gas. Insiders tell us our huge nonviolent campaign has sparked major concerns and conversations about the need to change in many insurance board rooms.
What now?
Actions against insuring fossil fuels are still happening every week across the UK. In 2025, Insure Our Survival steps it up with big, bold, new plans and tactics to demand insurers pull the plug on the fossil fuel industry.
And we need you!
