Greta Thunberg arrested after joining hundreds of climate protesters in London

The Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg was arrested in London after joining hundreds of protesters who gathered at a five-star hotel to denounce a meeting described as 'the Oscars of oil'.

The demonstration, organised by Fossil Free London, blocked the entrance to the InterContinental Park Lane, the venue for the Energy Intelligence Forum, which brings together fossil fuel executives and government ministers. The Metropolitan police say five people were arrested.

Pro climate change? How did she get into the UK, plane, ferry, train, car, bike,

[byssmal]

Wow. She already a grown woman but her mindset still a child

[marygold]

Does she know how much worse it is for the environment to operate missiles and tanks in other countries at war ? Please go to there to protest.

The activist who is constantly being flown and driven around on airplanes and cars that run on fuel (the oily kind). That glass house of hers is so tempting to throw stones at

[mireiacastello]

You don't have to dismiss all concerns about the environment to see that she loves the attention.

[jamesevans]

Wow, congratulations Greta on getting arrested again. You must be so much more of a caring and concerned person than the rest of us.

Praying for Greta to find a real job one day

[johnw]

She wasn't "detained".... she's just playing her part of the charade.

[Neil-ld]

Looking forward to the day when she's ACTUALLY charged, prosecuted and found guilty. That way she'll be put back on a plane the next time she attempts the same thing again.

Another carefully choreographed “arrest” for Greta😂😂😂😂😂. I hope she’s ok🙄

[centurione]

Did she walk or did she fly to London?

[pubtalkpubtalk]

I saw her arrive at the airport, what a hypocrite.

[chrisgingell]

we can not live without oil at the moment

[FigsLife]

Can you do your protest without a microphone because the microphone is made out of plastic and plastic is made out of the very thing that you're finding against.

[saradis]

She wants us to return to The Stone Age we can’t do that.

[ReiGon-ie]

Thank you for wearing oil polyester clothes all the time, .. And flying ✈ around in jumbo jets 😂

[travis]

Did she row a boat or ride a bike there?

[christophermorgan]

Can't understand what so irritates people about Greta, most folks age 18 are partying and saying "I was like bla bla bla. .. so many great people were climate advocates like Henry David Thoreau, Theodore Roosevelt, Rachel Carson, George Washington Carver just to name a few.

You can be denied entry to the UK for just having a driving conviction. How is this woman allowed to get pass boarder control with a global arrest/conviction record a mile long ?.

[willsommers]

Why has a foreign repeat offender been allowed back in to the uk?
