LONDON -- Fashion designer Vivienne Westwood rolled through David Cameron's Witney constituency on a great big white tank Friday in a protest against fracking.

The tank, with the 74-year-old Westwood sat on top, arrived outside the prime minister's home. He managed to miss the whole event as he was away in Leeds (having an awkward mic slip moment).

The tank had banners for Talkfracking.org on the side.

Westwood has been a vocal opponent of fracking, which is a process of fracturing rocks to extract gas. She has claimed the UK government is experimenting on the British people "like guinea pigs."
