Fridays for Future - act on climate change

Parliament Square, London, UK. Fri 26 Oct 2018



 #FridaysforFuture is a global movement which was prompted by the action of Swedish 15yr old Greta Thunberg

 who instead of going back to school at the end of August sat down in front of the Swedish parliament to start

 the 'School Strike for Climate.

 Other groups, including this one in London are holding weekly protests each Friday in solidarity.

 

 Elsie Luna who produces The Politics Podcast for Young People in the UK has a warning for Angela Merkel - I see your dirty coal

 
     
 The GLA security in the square told them they could not protest where they were but could go to the pavement at the front which is not owned by GLA

 The weekly protest is supported by Extinction Rebellion

This was the first protest and the organisers hope it will grow week by week.
