Oct 31, 2023 #justStopOil
More than 60 Just Stop Oil protesters have been arrested after the activist group carried out a demonstration in Westminster on Monday morning.

Demonstrators laid down and sat on the floor of every corner of Parliament Square after marching around the central London road in orange hi-vis jackets.

Many of the protesters were then placed into handcuffs by police after refusing to move off the floor.

The Metropolitan Police posted on social media: “Officers have arrested 62 Just Stop Oil activists who were in the road in Parliament Square”.

They added that its officers had arrived “within four minutes of receiving the initial report”.

The police force said the arrests were made under section seven of the Public Order Act.
