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.
