Extinction Rebellion Funeral Procession
Whitehall & The Mall, London. Sat 24 Nov 2018
The pall-bearers ease the coffin back from the police and walk with
it out of the centre of Parliament Square
and are followed by a crowd as the go to the road in front of the
Houses of Parliament
Roger Hallam, one of the founders of XR, talks with them
People bring the banners and line up behind the coffin
Two protesters with white-painted brances to represent coral, rapidly
being lost as seas warm
Christian Climate Action are ending their road block and reading a
liturgy
It takes some time to organise everyone for the march
But finally it moves off up Parliament St and into Whitehall with
Gail Bradbrook walking in front of the main banner
At the very front are the drummers accompanying the coffin
and everyon halts in front of Downing St for a noisy protest
A familar face with an extra head... Chris Knight
People sat down in Whitehall for a short silent protest
and then Gail asked them to get up and move on....
A campaigner gets out a spray can and starts to write on the monument
to The Women of World War Two
but is interupted by a police information gatherer before he can finish...
and arrested for causing criminal damage. Some other protesters tried to
clean the memorial, but with little success.
