Greta Thunberg smirks during arrest while at oil protest in London
Greta Thunberg was seen smirking as the climate activist was being detained by London police and hauled into a van after she was arrested at an oil protest.
The 20-year-old Swedish native was wearing a gray beanie and puffer coat as two officers ushered her into a police van with more than a dozen people who were arrested, according to The Guardian.
Six were busted for obstructing the highway, while 14 others were arrested for disrupting public order.
Thunberg had joined hundreds of other protesters for the Oily Money Out protest outside the five-star hotel, InterContinental. The protest was organized by Fossil Free London, a climate campaign group.
“Behind these closed doors at the oil and money conference, spineless politicians are making deals and compromises with lobbyists from destructive industries, the fossil fuel industry,” the activist told journalists.
“People all over the world are suffering and dying from the consequences of the climate crisis caused by these industries who we allow to meet with our politicians and have privileged access to.”
