Global Climate Strike Protest continues
Whitehall, London. Fri 20 Sep 2019
Political artist Kaya Mar was at Parliament with a picture of Trump
with a club and oil filling pump on the globe
Kurds were also protesting in Parliament Square in support of Rojava
and against the Turkish invasion.
Rojava has a remarkable constitution that enshines equality for women
and for minorities and is also
environmentally concerned.
People warn protesters sitting on the road in Whitehall they will
be arrested unless they move
and most stay sitting
watched by other protesters and legal observers
after a final warning
one man is arrested and led away towards a police van
The school students march up Whitehall
and then turn down Horseguards Ave
and into Whitehall Court.
Police block them at the junction with Northumberland Ave and they
sit down
'You're burning our future'
'Stop Ecocide'
'Don't Be A Fossil Fool'
'Planet Plastic'
A young woman speaks using a traffic cone as a megaphone
A man holds a small dinosaur. Police try to persuade the students
to move - and eventually they do
and sit down in Whitehall
'No Planet B'
Many have Extinction Rebellion stickers
'Reduced to ASH'
'Hello? Which Part of Emergency Don't You Understand'
Eventually they stood up and began ot march back towards Parliament Square
