Meet the men behind the anti-Trump protests: The wealthy descendant of a Labour politician, a hard-line Corbynista and a senior university lecturer
The orchestrator of the ‘Trump Baby’ protest against the U.S. President’s visit to Britain is a wealthy descendant of a former Labour peer, it can be revealed.
Leo Murray, grandson of the late Labour politician Anthony Greenwood, once scaled the roof of the House of Commons in a protest against Heathrow expansion.
And Michael Chessum, a prominent Momentum activist who dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s ‘kinder politics’ in favour of ‘heads on sticks’, has co-organised the largest anti-Trump march.
A giant blimp depicting the President as a wailing baby in a nappy will fly near the Houses of Parliament next week after Mr Khan bowed to a petition of 10,000 signatures.
