'Trump: Climate Genocide' Giant banner

Westminster, London. Thu 12 Jul 2018



 It took a very long time to get the banner and carry it to the right place on the Embankment

 The whole banner was 50 metres long and came in two long rolls

 

 

 

 It had to be passed around in front of the lamp posts

 

 Slowly it was dropped over the river wall

 

 By now the light was beginning to fade - it was over an hour later than intended

 and finally it was almost there

 Two police officers stood on the bridge watching, with one filming the banner drop

 'TRUMP: CLIMATE GENOCIDE' in fluorescent orange letters around 15ft high.

 

 It needed a very wide angle lens to show the banner and the Houses of Parliament on the opposite side of the

River Thames.
