 in 2018. Nine of us from Grandparents for a Safe Earth – which sadly no longer exists – hired some wheelchairs, and other environmentalists provided us with equipment to lock ourselves together, which I unloaded in a street parallel to Downing Street. We tucked the equipment under the blankets of the people in wheelchairs, and wheeled our way down Victoria Street){kind=link}

‘My pension is killing his future.’
When I go on climate protests, I often carry a photograph of my middle grandson when he was 24 hours old. I usually have this sort of slogan attached to it.
And I go to these protests because my wife, Pauline, and I have a rising concern about the safety of our three grandchildren and future generations.
As elderly people with time on our hands and some sense of responsibility for the current state of the world, we want to try and make a difference.
