Just Stop Oil protesters cost police £3.5m in a month

So far, 45 people have been arrested for breaching the Public Order Act, including eight earlier on Wednesday.

"We are assessing these situations in real-time balancing complex human rights and legal considerations. Londoners can be assured that we are taking these issues seriously and it is clear from the number of times conditions have been imposed and arrests made, that there is no right to seriously disrupt others.

The Met has said that Just Stop Oil does not engage with police ahead of time so officers cannot be deployed at or near to the locations of planned protests.
