Police have arrested more than 100 environmental protesters overnight as the climate demonstrations that brought chaos to central London enters its second day.
Thousands of people blocked four well-known London landmarks on Monday – Waterloo Bridge, Marble Arch, Parliament Square and Oxford Circus – to demand urgent action over the escalating ecological crisis.
The blockades continued throughout the day but as darkness fell officers moved in and began to arrest people on Waterloo Bridge in an effort to clear it.
On Tuesday, the Metropolitan police said it had arrested 113 protesters overnight but demonstrators said all four sites remained under their control.
