(Picture: PA Wire)Abseiling in from Tower Bridge at 7am on Friday like a slogan-savvy SWAT team, Extinction Rebellion is deploying its weapons of mass disruption on London once again. Stop the traffic, save the world.
Protesters blocked Tower Bridge Road, with two people hanging from the bridge by suspension cords and others hanging a huge banner over its side demanding “End fossil fuels now”. But this is just the beginning. The April Rebellion starts now. Extinction Rebellion (XR) has promised to gum up the city’s works with new tactics it claims will “create the most roadblocks we ever have”.
