[3] In November 2018, Kingston was arrested after he obstructed traffic by blocking the road outside the Houses of Parliament.
It was reported that when police moved him out of the way of traffic, he repeatedly attempted to lie back in the road.
[2][6] During Extinction Rebellion's October Rebellion in 2019, Kingston was arrested several times after he graffitied and sprayed fake blood on the Treasury building, blocked access to London City Airport, and glued his hand to a DLR train at Shadwell station.
[7][8][9][10] He later said he regretted gluing himself to the train because he became aware of the impact it was having on commuters and because he "want[s] to target the corporations and government departments".
[12] His trial for gluing himself to the train in October 2019, along with the two other protesters who climbed on top of one of the carriages, began at Inner London Crown Court in January 2022.
