Participants will reportedly gather from 16:00 (local time) and the group plans to operate tractors and farm vehicles in the vicinity of Parliament Square which will likely result in traffic disruptions.

A heightened security presence is to be expected for the duration of the protest, with associated disruptions to transportation in the vicinity likely.
