Just Stop Oil met with fury as Londoners take action over disruptions

Just Stop Oil caused a gridlock after activists filed into Harleyford Street in Kennington, south London on Saturday afternoon. The climate group have been disrupting traffic every day in different parts of the Capital in an effort to pressure the Government into pulling back on new licencing for the extraction of gas and oil. But increasingly frustrated commuters have taken action, forcefully removing the activists from the street and telling them to “go to Westminster” to air their grievances instead of causing issues for them.A lorry driver can be seen approaching the sitting protesters on the northbound carriageway asking for them to move after moving his vehicle from the opposite side of the road.He said: “Let me go past, I got to pick my kids up, do you understand?”You’re not the police, you don’t own the f****ng road, let me go past.”As the protesters refused to budge, the man was filmed dragging one of them back to the sidewalk as another passer-by helped.JUST IN: Furious Londoners lose patience with eco mob as protester dragged away after blocking road Just Stop Oil brought commuters together as they blocked the road (Image: JUST STOP OIL) Just Stop Oil activists were confronted by a furious lorry driver (Image: JUST STOP OIL)As he went back to drag another Just Stop Oil activist away from the road, he screamed: “You’re f****ng pathetic.”Go to Parliament.

You’re doing the wrong thing by blocking us. Can you please move before we pick up any of you?”Do you want us to pick you up and move you? No?
