Telegraph, 01 Oct 2021
Climate group Insulate Britain is staging its 10th day of protests in the past three weeks by blocking two motorways at the same time.
The organisation said around 30 of its activists have blocked roundabouts at Junction 3 of the M4 near Heathrow Airport, west London, and Junction 1 of the M1 at Brent Cross, north London.
Drivers stuck in long queues of traffic beeped their horns in frustration.
The Metropolitan Police said the protesters blocked the M4 at around 8.27am. Officers were on the scene in 13 minutes and the road was cleared by 9am, with 13 people arrested for obstruction and conspiracy to commit public nuisance.
