Just Stop Oil has been out of the news lately. But this week, its members are back and more annoying than ever, as they protest against the black stuff. Following an attack on a painting at the National Gallery on Monday, JSO activists have been holding up traffic in central London today by sitting in the road. Unfortunately, one of the vehicles that was blocked by congestion on Waterloo Bridge was an ambulance with its blue lights on. The paramedics who couldn’t get through were providing emergency life support for people whose lungs are not working properly, according to the Daily Telegraph.
Just Stop Oil tried to pass the buck for the incident by saying police officers were the ones blocking the ambulance ‘so they can blame it on a protest march going in the other direction’.
The @metpoliceuk appear to be blocking an ambulance on Waterloo Bridge so they can blame it on a protest march going in the other direction.
