Extinction Rebellion logo appears on historic Wiltshire white horse
An Extinction Rebellion logo appeared on the historic Alton Barnes White Horse at the weekend in Wiltshire.
The XR logo, which depicts an hourglass and is synonymous with Extinction Rebellion, was created out of black clothes and material.
Critics have slammed the move, saying it was 'disrespectful' to Wiltshire's famous landmark.
Others were quick to defend the movement, reminding them that the logo was temporary, and only made from T-shirts.
