Chris Packham, presenter on BBC's “Springwatch,” teamed up with Extinction Rebellion on Sunday (December 22) for an anti-high speed rail protest.

Packham was joined by fellow TV presenter Megan McCubbin as they delivered a petition to 10 Downing Street encouraging the government to "rethink HS2."

The pair then dressed as Santa Claus and an elf and delivered "Boris HS2 Train Sets" - "what every child doesn't want this Christmas," according to the presenters, outside Hamley's toy store in central London. The boxes contained no trains, but information about HS2.
