|Updated:

More than 50 protesters from the eco-activist group Insulate Britain (IB) blocked the M25 motorway at the exit leading to the Heathrow Airport on Monday morning.

It’s the group’s sixth roadblock in two weeks. The group, an offshoot of Extinction Rebellion (XR), is calling on the government to insulate homes across the UK to help cut carbon emissions.
