Two JustStop_Oil protesters attached themselves to the bridge's masts at the Dartford Crossing. It’s the latest action in a spate of demonstrations by the environmental group. But who are Just Stop Oil and what do they want? hannahtpsky explains.
1:02A Just Stop Oil protester who blocked the Dartford Crossing has compared himself and others in the group to Dr Martin Luther King and the Suffragettes.
Police said on Tuesday they had arrived at the bridge with a"raised platform" to"allow specialists to work at height and continue meaningful engagement with two people".Around 5pm, a statement from bridge design engineer Mr Trowland and his fellow demonstrator, identified as Marcus, a 33-year-old teacher, said they were ending their protest after they"successfully disrupted oil supplies to Kent and the South East for 36 hours".
"Martin Luther King was reviled in America in the early 1960s - sometimes people hate the thing that needs to come next."
