Fest-activism - 2,000 eco-demonstrators at Glastonbury

Around 2,000 festival-goers have joined climate change campaigners Extinction Rebellion in a procession across the Glastonbury festival site, paying tribute to indigenous people who have led the fight against global heating. Dr Gail Bradbrook from ER said it is "not a protest. It is not a campaign. It is a rebellion. We are in active rebellion against our government. The social contract is broken, the governments aren’t protecting us and it’s down to us now... It’s a shift in the consciousness of each of us". See pictures of the protest at Evening Standard.
