#ExtinctionRebellion with local campaign groups, councillors and residents voiced opposition to #Farnborough Airport's plans which would almost double the number of private jet flights to 70,000 a year - blatantly ignore the #ClimateCrisis. #BanPrivateJets #TaxTheRich www.itv.com/news/meridia...

Banners at Farnborough Airport during a protest in February 2025, reading "Flying to Extinction" and "Private Jets = Public Deaths"
