ACTIVISTS disrupted an ethical clothing event hosted by Boohoo on Tuesday to call out the firm’s green-washing and poor workers’ rights record. 

The protest erupted as senior representatives at the fast-fashion brand spoke at a panel event titled “ethical clothing and industry collaboration” at the Source Fashion Show in London. 

A video of the action shows fair-fashion campaigners standing up one by one to criticise the firm’s treatment of garment workers in its supply chain.
