Nitrous Oxide - 'My Mind, My choice!'

Parliament Square, London. Sat 1 Aug 2015

  
 
 Protesters fill balloons with nitrous oxide.

 and balloons were handed out to anyone who wanted one

 

 

 It was approaching 3pm and everyone was getting ready
      
 People are advised to sit down to inhale nitrous oxide, as it can make you stagger and fall

 
      
 and everyone gets ready

 they raise the balloons in the air for photographers
      
 

And as Bign Ben strikes they begin to inhale 
 
 

People breath in and out into balloons 

though the smell of rubber would put me off 

 

 

One of the organisers is interviewed 
      
A woman lights incense sticks. Some churches are worried that the bill as currently drafted would also make incense illegal 

Some people continue to take nitrous oxide after the official protest
