Protest and survive

Here's a little shrine to Marion Gettleson on Portobello Road.

She has managed to annoy the developers who are trying to oust the traders on Portobello Road in favour of the more profit-friendly big chain outlets by helping set up a protest group. [Hooray!] To the point where they banned her from entering any of their shops! Hundreds of Marion masks were made and donned by the local traders and residents, who spent the whole day going in and out of the shops in protest. Maybe Marion wore one of the masks?
