A nomination for ‘Mothers Rise Up’
From their website :
8am – 9.15am :
We will gather with prams, including two huge pushchairs containing giant globes, outside Shell’s UK headquarters on Belvedere Road, SE1 7NA (behind the London Eye) to sing reworked versions of well-known nursery rhymes including ‘Old King Coal’ and ‘Amazon’s Burning’ as the company opens for business. This part of the action is child friendly – there is even a playground next to the Shell’s building. Just remember to dress for the weather and bring plenty of snacks – you know the drill!
9.15am – 10.15am :
We will process across Westminster Bridge with our pushchairs to protest outside the gates of Downing Street. This part of the action is not suitable for children, as we may need to weave in an out of traffic with our pushchairs.
10.15am – 11am :
We will march with our pushchairs to BP’s global headquarters at 1 St James’s Square, London SW1Y 4PD. This part of the action is not suitable for children, as may need to weave in an out of traffic with our pushchairs.
We hope this protest will help put pressure on the government to deliver more rapid emissions reductions in the UK through a range of measures, including a ban on dirty energy from fossil fuels and a massive expansion in renewable energy.
How about you fuck off to China, the world’s biggest polluter with your pushchairs and sprogs. Take that sanctimonious Thunberg with you.
