School-students have been banned from marching down Princes Street during a planned climate change protest. The council said marchers would not be allowed to set foot on Princes Street on 20 September.
School student strikers, an expected 10,000, had planned to assemble at Middle Meadow Walk at 11am on Friday the 20th September to march down Forrest Road, George IV Bridge, the Mound, Princes Street, North Bridge, High Street, Canongate, Horse Wynd and on to the Scottish Parliament. Police had raised no official objection to the event.
So much for the council declaring a climate emergency and its education committee granting pupils one day to take action without any punishment.
