A road tunnel at Heathrow has been blocked by Climate change protestors causing delays on the M4

Protestors from anti-airport campaign group Plane Stupid locked themselves to van carrying a “No New Runways” sign.

Activists are protesting plans to build a third runway at Heathrow.

 

 

A Met Police spokesman said: “Officers are currently dealing with a protest near the inbound tunnel of Heathrow airport. They were called at 7:42am on Thursday, November 26.

“No arrests have been made at this time.”

Back in July this year, 12 Plane Stupid demonstrators cut a hole in fence at 3.30am and chained themselves to objects on the runway. This caused a lot delays and cancellations at Heathrow.
