Westminster Bridge, London. Sat 17 Nov 2018

 Police made an effort to move the protesters off the road, telling them they could be arrested for obstruction of the highway

 but the protesters ignored them, and eventually they gave up. Many made it clear they would be happy to be arrested

 if it was necessary to save the plaent.

 People sit in a circle around an umbrella with the message 'Save Our Planet'
