I'm The 64-Year-Old Granny Who Was Arrested At The Climate Change Protests

The past three days have seen activists take to the streets of London to participate in protests of civil disobedience planned to go on until 29th April. Extinction Rebellion – the non-violent UK-based grassroots environmental group behind the protests – has apologised for blocking traffic over the past three days at some of London’s busiest junctions but, they say, they need to get climate change to the top of the UK agenda, and so far their strategy is working. Joy Rowell, a 64-year-old grandmother of soon to be nine grandchildren, was arrested at Waterloo Bridge for blocking the public highway.
