Environmental Protesters Interrupt Liz Truss's Speech at Tory Conference

UK Prime Minister Liz Truss’s speech at her party conference was interrupted by Greenpeace protesters in Birmingham on Wednesday, October 5.

In footage by Nathaniel Ogunniyi, two protesters can be seen being booed by the audience, who can be heard chanting, “out, out, out.”

The protesters were from Greenpeace UK, who said the prime minister was “shredding” her party’s 2019 manifesto promises. Greenpeace said Truss’s policies amounted to a “U-turning on fracking, strong climate action, and world-leading environmental protections.” Credit: Nathaniel Ogunniyi via Storyful
