Scores of climate change protesters - including coach-loads of Bristol campaigners - brought parts of central London, including the iconic Oxford Circus, to a standstill last week in order to show their passionate support for a radical plan to tackle environmental concerns.
Bristol protesters lobbied the European headquarters of Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan plan, which is the biggest private investor in airports in Europe, and owns a large share of Bristol Airport.
Many also travelled to Oxford Circus to keep watch over a blockade in the city centre, shutting down the main arterial road to traffic all night.
