Insulate Britain block London’s Old Street roundabout and the M25 as police begin arrests

Daily Mail published this video item, entitled “Insulate Britain block London’s Old Street roundabout and the M25 as police begin arrests” – below is their description.

Insulate Britain this morning targeted Old Street roundabout – in the heart of London ‘s hipster haven Shoreditch – and again the M25. Scores of the protesters – who have been widely savaged for their actions – sat down in the roundabout holding banners. They were flanked by as many ‘official observers’ dressed in high-vis vests after a series of confrontations from furious motorists in recent days. The unpopular campaigners were seen blocking ambulances getting out after they glued themselves to the ground. The eco-mob were also back at the M25 breaking a court injunction designed to stop them. Liam Norton from Insulate Britain said: ‘This isn’t a cause, this is about the deaths of our children before they get to grow old. This isn’t protesting, this is about doing whatever it takes to protect the future generations. And we want to be clear, this campaign will continue until the government gives us a meaningful statement we can trust, if that happens we will get off the roads like a shot
