Unique Ways of Protest Adopted Around the World

In the past, some unique ways  of Protest were adopted in Britain and around the world . Somewhere the environmental activists protested by pouring sauce on the oil painting, while somewhere the mannequins in the Wax Museum were damaged. In one case, a girl protesting against private jets threw urine and faeces at a statue of former British soldier Captain Thomas Moore.

Britain: Conservative Party lost in two by-elections

The Wakefield, Tiverton, and Honiton areas were elected to replace Conservative Party MPs who had resigned on various charges.

These results will fuel panic among the troubled Conservative Party, which is already concerned that the precarious and divisive Johnson is no longer the right bet for the election.
