Insulated from the law

I HAVE nothing but contempt for the ‘Insulate Britain’ protesters who blockaded the M25 this week. they’re just climate-change attentionseekers, people who use this very serious and complex issue as a platform for their own giant egos.

But what infuriates me even more is the fact that the police took four hours to remove them.

Britain is bristling with speed cameras and traffic wardens poised to penalise any law-abiding citizen who makes even the slightest slipup on the road. Yet this lot choke off the whole of London and they get treated with kid gloves. It’s an insult.
