Thousands of XR protesters to occupy Windsor Great Park

THOUSANDS of Extinction Rebellion (XR) activists will occupy Windsor Great Park for three days this summer, the climate protest group announced today.

XR has invited King Charles to the Upgade Democracy protest from August 30 to September 1, noting his history of environmentalism.

The event in the park, which is adjacent to the grounds of Windsor Castle, the monarch’s home in Berkshire, will include a so-called f*UNFAIR and a mass community assembly, as well as outreach, art-blocking, workshops, music and speakers.
