Greta Thunberg tells MPs: 'Our future was sold'

Greta Thunberg took her climate message to the Houses of Parliament in Westminster on Tuesday. The 16-year-old Swedish climate change activist told a packed room that her future and the futures of her fellow children had been 'sold'.

She said: 'We probably don't even have a future any more. That future has been sold so that a small number of people can make unimaginable amounts of money.'

Thunberg's visit coincides with the ongoing Extinction Rebellion protests across London to highlight the dangers of climate change
