Millbank, westminister

After Northern Rebels having their kitchens, tents and beehive confiscated from day 1 and after many arrests, you might have thought that our moral would have been carried off along with it. Time to go home. But no, the next day we were still there and we weren't going down without a (non-violent) fight. The arrest process took hours of police time and caused a stir in anyone who witnessed the will to show the seriousness of the issue, to sacrifice as way to demonstrate we cannot keep ignoring the causes of the climate crisis and the urgency of which we need to act now. We of the 12 sites were the nearest to Westminister making the most vulnerable and hardest to occupy. Rebels were travelling across the country to be there, so it was taking a while to get the numbers we needed to keep the site. But despite this, we successfully shut down Millbank for two days and Northern rebels continued to occupy the remaining sites XR have in Westminster.
