London, UK. 21st September 2017. After successfully blocking all traffic in Trafalgar Square for a short protest and a few minutes rest, 'Stop Killing Londoners' block the east side of the square for a few minutes of disco protest, dancing to loud music on the roadway. Eventually police came and told them to leave and the protest ended. This was the 5th protest by campaigners from Rising Up aimed at mobilising people across London to demand action from the Mayor and TfL who are failing to confront this pressing problem. Boris laughed at the problem and Sadiq Khan has yet to take action and the campaigners believe only peaceful and creative direct action tactics such as this will get the authorities to act.
