Anger as climate protesters block London motorway

The activists from Insulate Britain, which wants the British government to commit to providing insulation for 29 million homes, blocked slip roads, glued themselves to the road and poured paint onto the motorway carriageway.

It is the fourth such action in the last week to disrupt the M25 by the group. It sent a letter to the Highways Agency and police on Sunday (September 19) to warn them that their campaign would go on until the government met its demands.

Home Secretary Priti Patel has described the protests as unacceptable and said the police must take decisive action.
