Teenage activists from Extinction Rebellion's Youth wing in Bristol boarded and blockaded an Airport Flyer bus as it arrived at Temple Meads Station this afternoon. The action, which began at 2pm, was conducted by protesters as young as 16 and 17 in protest at the ongoing plans to expand Bristol Airport, and against swingeing cuts to regular bus services in Bristol.
The activists hung banners out of the window of the bus, which had just deposited its passengers from the airport to the station, and prevented it from embarking on a return trip to the airport.
