‘Three Billboards’ protest in London for Grenfell high-rise fire victims

Activists for victims of a deadly London high-rise fire have taken inspiration from an Academy Award-nominated film to press for more action by police.

Three mobile billboards were driven through the British capital Thursday on behalf of the Justice 4 Grenfell campaign. The group was set up after fire ravaged the Grenfell Tower block of flats in June, killing 71 people.

The signs read: “71 dead. And still no arrests? How Come?”

In the film Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, a mother played by Frances McDormand uses large signs to berate police for failing to catch her daughter’s killer.
