Rallies began at 9:00 GMT on Thursday, with protestors sitting in front of the terminal’s main entrance and some being forcefully removed from the airport’s foyer.
Extinction Rebellion (XR) protestors have caused headaches for travellers and staff at London City Airport on Thursday as they launched a three-day occupation aimed at mirroring “Hong Kong-style” demonstrations abroad.
The London City Airport tweeted early on Thursday that it had confirmed “a number of protestors” had arrived at the airport and that they were working with the Met Police. LCA authorities were also implementing boarding pass checks at the terminal entrance “due to the threat of protestor activity”.
