Group of babies descends on Parliament Square to protest single-use nappies

An unusual protest saw a group of babies descend on Parliament Square – to raise awareness of the devastating impact of single-use nappies on their future.

The mini revolutionaries accompanied their mums and dads to the demonstration, with the parents waving placards bearing messages such as “Power to the PEE-ple”, “Our future’s not disposable”, and “It’s my planet and I’ll cry if I want to”.

The protest came as new research revealed that 10 million single-use nappies are sent to landfill in the UK every single day – equating to 3.6 billion over the course of a year.
