UK’s environmental campaigners “Extinction Rebellion” block roads around London’s Parliament Square
Guardian 24th Nov 2018 Dozens of campaigners blocked the roads around Parliament Square to
highlight concerns about the environment on Saturday. About 50 activists
from Extinction Rebellion, a direct action group that has been coordinating
a campaign of civil disobedience which has brought areas of the capital to
a standstill in recent weeks, risked arrest by standing defiantly in roads
in front of queueing traffic. An estimated 1,000 more demonstrators, many
clad in black clothing, massed on the green in Parliament Square for what
organisers labelled a “memorial service” to mourn the loss of life on the
planet.
