The G20 London summit took place last week and there were many protests about the event. About 35,000 people protestedin demand for jobs, economic security, and environmental concerns. The G-20 stands for the Group of Twenty Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors. It includes leaders from 19 of the largest national economies and the European Union.
Between the 20 economies, they account for 85% of the total GNP, 80% of world trade, and two-thirds of the world’s population. The twenty countries include: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the European Union.
One of the most odd protesters to show up was a man dressed up in a pink suit, a pink tie, and a pink Stormtrooper helmet. I’ve seen some funny uses of Stormtrooper outfits, but I think that this one takes the cake.
