Anti-Windfarm / Anti-SNP Windfarm Policy Protest March - Perth

Pictures here from a protest march through Perth and demonstration outside Perth's Horsecross Concert Hall where the SNP were holding their annual conference.

The protest was against windfarms and the SNP windfarm policy. Organised by the East Fife Turbine Awareness Group, it saw members of other groups with similar views from across Scotland join in.

The group formed at the South Inch and marched through the heart of Perth along Princess Street, St John Street, High Street and George Street before reaching the concert hall.

As part of their efforts, a red airship was flown above Perth's North Inch to demonstrate the height of a turbine.

The link to the full collection follows the pictures.

I am not affiliated to any of the groups involved.
