When Extinction Rebellion climate change protest will end in Bristol

For five days, Extinction Rebellion has been causing disruption across Bristol city centre.

Hundreds of activists have taken to the streets of Bristol this week to raise awareness of the 'climate emergency'.

Throughout the past few days, protesters have caused disruption throughout the city centre , blocked traffic on the M32 and camped at Castle Park .

The group originally told Bristol Live the protest would last five days, meaning the action would finish today (July 19).

However, before the protest began, one ecowarrior told us it could last longer than that.

But it looks like the group will stick to the original plan, as an activist for Extinction Rebellion said today would be the last day of the protest in Bristol this morning.

He added the group's next large-scale action will take place in London later this year.

He said: "This is the last day in Bristol. The next really big action in London is scheduled for October 7."
