Extinction Rebellion Dinner of HOPE
Natural History Museum, London. 20th June 2019
The picnic was in the garden in front of the museum
and people were busy getting it ready when I arrived
at its centre was a table looking like the pink yacht XR took to Oxford
Circus which was getting loaded with food
There were rather boat-like pink paper hats with the message 'Tell
the Truth'
and several people had come with large angel wings
10-year old Elsie Luna spoke briefly, opening the party
She contacted the museum telling them why they should not have a dinner
for the Petroleum Group of the
Geological Society, celebrating their exploration of fossil fuels.
But they didn't listen, so XR organised this party
Senegalese protesters against BP arrive to join the party. BP have
been in murky financial dealings with
London-based businessman, Frank Timis and Aliou Sall, brother of the Senegalese
president, Macky Sall.
