Protest Ouside Climate Change Deniers in the City of London | Demotix.com
...many of those entering the office building and hurrying elsewhere along the street took copies of the leaflet which explained why they were protesting against this company run by and supporting right wing extremist climate change deniers and environmental criminals. On the back were portraits of some of the public figures they support, including talk show host Glen Beck (ex Fox News TV host), vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, Texas congressman and founder of 'Campaign for Liberty', Texas governor and Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry, former congressman Dick Amey, chairman of 'FreedomWorks' and representative Michelle Bachmann from Minnesota, the founder of the House Tea Party Caucus.
In their evening protest which I photographed, CCC used placards with enlarged portraits of these leading figures related to Koch Industries who are major funders of the Tea Party movement. It was too windy for their very large banner, and rather cold for the 'tea party' they had intended to stage, but they did get out the cups (and teapot) for a picture.
