@gretathunberg arrested at Hague climate #protest

Swedish #climate activist Greta Thunberg has been arrested by #Dutch police at a protest in The Hague.

The 21-year-old joined hundreds of protesters in a march against fossil fuel subsidies on Saturday.

The protest devolved into a standoff as dozens of police officers, some on horseback, attempted to stop protesters from blocking a main road.

BBC is so proud of the police making sure oil is subsidized. Its all "well in hand" as the "protestors" are carted away.

Time for unanswerable questions, time for Gandhi's Salt March.

Time to end subsidies. To zero. Time.

It would be so awesome if the roads could be fully blocked UNTIL subsidies/grants are zer0! 💪

Let them walk! A lot better for the people AND for nature

The sad thing about this is that we would have hear NOTHING about the protest at all if she hadn't gotten arrested. The press isn't interested in providing facts about important issues, they're only interested in advertising dollars and getting them by creating and then exploiting "celebrity".
