Extinction Rebellion Doctors Climate Protest

Parliament Square, London. Wed 25 Sep 2019



 Doctors for extinction rebellion are holding a protest in Parliament Square

 Their banner points out that 'Governmen t Inaction will cost countless lives'

 and a placard calls for them to 'Act on Climate Now'.

 'Diagnosis: Climate Crisis - Condition: Critical - Prescription: Act Now'

 A microphone is passed along the people holding the banner who make short speeches

 

 

 

 

 Several are carrying small babies

 

 

 

 

 

 and they also speak

 

 

 

 

 

 

 On the other side of the square outside Parliament protesters for and against Brexit protest and argue

 

 A couple are rather oddly dressed. One man with a bell stands next to a banner 'Time to appoint Joseph 77 as

 'Surrogate Prime Minister'. I think this refers to the clothes designer Joseph of 77 Fulham Rd in Chelsea

Another has an orange suit with yellow spots, a Boris mask with an odd hat with 2 bananas and what could be a fish.
I decide it's better not to ask, take a picture and leave
