According to eyewitnesses, the squirrel ran in and out of the meeting room several times.
In their opinion, the appearance of the animal turned out to be quite appropriate: at the meeting, the environmental impact of Heathrow Airport on the environment was discussed.
Green Party member Carolyn Russell joked that the squirrel: "Wanted to make sure there was a voice representing the natural world at the meeting."
