⚓Greta finished her voyage today and was confiscated near Kennington Park.
💛This was after about 70 miles of walking and 6 days of outreach and adventure. Three rebels engaged in non-violent civil disobedience at the scene of Greta being taken.
💥There was an absolutely excessive amount of police considering we were peacefully marching. There were 14 police vans and over 100 police officers - a huge overreaction to what we were doing. It is within our rights to peacefully protest!
⚡One XR Brighton rebel who was arrested was brutally pushed to the ground and handcuffed. Another XR Brighton rebel glued themselves to Greta. One person from XR Bristol glued themselves to the removal vehicle which was going to be used to take Greta away - this slowed the whole procedure by about an hour!
Greta was seized, BUT we have been told we will get her back...
⛵GRETA LIVES ON⛵
They can take Greta but they cannot take our determination. The power of the people who pushed her from Brighton all the way to London LIVES ON.
☀️On this voyage we have created one big Greta family, a community of people who came together because they are trying to create change. It's been a hub of people from all walks of life, and there has been so much connection, inspiration, conversation and motivation.
🌿We feel echausted but more courageous than ever before, we are full to the brim with love... and rage.
Whatever comes next, it's going to be powerful; together, we are powerful.
- The Greta Crew⛵⚓💛.
