High Court lifts road block ban for protest groups

Injunctions stopping environmental protesters from blocking major roads in London have been lifted.

Louise Lancaster from Cambridgeshire was jailed for her part in the 2022 Just Stop Oil protests.

Dr Diana Warner believes her actions were justified for the sake of public health.

The group wants more action on climate change - but its tactics have faced criticism.

Trudi Warner expresses relief as the High Court halts efforts to bring contempt of court proceedings.

Insulate Britain campaigners "inconvenienced" thousands in the September 2021 action, police say.

Activists from Insulate Britain and Just Stop Oil have been targeted by TfL in the High Court.

The environmental group says it will not hold any more protests "for the foreseeable future".

The force made the plea after several members of the public took matters into their own hands.
