The climate change activist pled not guilty to a public order offence earlier in the day
Greta Thunberg was spotted at a pro-Palestine demonstration in Westminster just hours after leaving court where she pled not guilty to a public order offence.
The climate activist was amongst demonstrators who were protesting for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Yesterday, the 20-year-old appeared in the docks at Westminster Magistrates Court where she pled not guilty to breaching Section 14 of the Public Order Act 1986.
Later that evening, Thunberg was snapped at a rally outside of parliament, as MPs voted on whether to call a ceasefire or not.
The 20-year-old joined other protesters who chanted for a ceasefire to the conflict in the Middle East.
In October, Thunberg was arrested by Metropolitan Police officers after joining climate demonstrators outside the Energy Intelligence Forum in central London.
The protesters gathered outside the InterContinental Hotel in Mayfair over the use of fossil fuels by major oil and gas companies by companies attending the Forum.
The protest was interrupted by police officers after the crowd were accused of failing to leave the highway and continuing their demonstration on the pavement.

The eco-activist was consequently arrested during the incident on October 17.
If she is found guilty following the verdict, Thunberg could face a fine of up to £2,500.
She was later seen running away from crowds outside the court, as she was surrounded by a sea of people and cameras.
Thunberg made her getaway by running in the opposite direction to the crowd.
After her appearance at the pro-Palestine rally, the results of the vote on a ceasefire were announced.
