Mark Blackburn and other Westminster Liberal Democrats took part in a large-scale climate change march. It was estimated that approximately 20,000 attended.

Mark Blackburn, parliamentary campaigner for Westminster North, joined other Lib Dems last Saturday 5 December from around the country to call for action on climate change. Liberal Democrats held a rally before joining the rest of "The Wave" in its march from the US Embassy on Grosvenor Square to the Houses of Parliament.

The march was organised by the Stop Climate Chaos coalition in the run up to the start of the Copenhagen climate summit.
