Picture: Julia Atkinson TRAFFIC was at a standstill around the city centre today after protestors sat in the middle of the road. Police directed queues of cars from Beaumont Street towards St Giles this afternoon after a woman sat cross-legged in front of the gridlock. She was pictured by Julia Atkinson holding a sign which says: "I'm terrified for my grandchildren's future because of the climate crisis." Another man sat in front of the Westgate Centre on Oxpens Road. He also held a sign which said: "I am terrified that while all politicians lie, billions will die because of climate breakdown."
