Environment campaigners hang banner outside Parliament to mark Trump inauguration

CLIMATE campaigners have marked Donald Trump’s inauguration as US President by dropping a protest banner near Westminster Bridge in London.

The banner, hung across the Thames from Parliament in the action organised by Campaign Against Climate Change, read: “Trump: climate genocide.”

Friends of the Earth, which supported the action, said today: “From his promise to ‘drill, baby, drill’ to demanding the ‘opening up’ of the North Sea, Trump’s return to the Oval Office is emboldening a new wave of climate denial.
