The brigade were seen gliding through the city, silently protesting against the “impacts of consumerism on the environment”.

The protesters are hoping to get shoppers to consider their shopping traits, particularly at this time of year.

They spent time in Queensgate Shopping Centre and the cathedral, before making their way down Bridge Street.

The Red Rebel Brigade are affiliated with Extinction Rebellion.
