Just Stop Oil have sparked fury amongst commuters as they slowly march across seven London streets to protest UK investment in oil and gas

The group are marching slowly across the capital, leaving traffic flows crawling as JSO tries to force the Government to stop all new oil and gas projects through a new wave of civil disobedience.

The protests started at 7am and blocked seven major London arteries across Westminster, the West End and south London, causing traffic hell for commuters. Over 160 activists took on the march, days after co-protestors Extinction Rebellion coordinated with the group to peacefully protest over four-day in action dubbed "The Big One".

LBC's Fraser Knight described the chaos, saying: "Just Stop Oil causing huge issues on central london streets as they walk slowly on the roads - drivers getting very angry and frustrated at being held up with people yelling at them ‘get a job’".
