These Protesters Are Hard Core! Really.

In an effort to have their voices heard, chemical scientists dressed mannequins in white lab coats and placed them on parliaments lawn.  The scientists, part of The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), are protesting recent proposed cut backs in funding for their work. 

After a few photo shots, police showed up and (although not reported) I’m sure a short ‘Stand Off’ ensued.  As they were taken away the mannequins had ‘no comment’ and in good protester form, relatively blank expressions on their faces.
