Police fail to stop Insulate Britain protesters after they stick to the ground. Protesters from the group have again taken to the roads in London this morning, October 25, blocking Southwark Bridge in the center of the capital.
Police have been unable to arrest Insulate Britain members after they adhered to the road
In images posted on social media, several protesters can be seen sitting in front of cars and holding placards as officers attempt to remove them from the road.
However, because some of them have glued their hands to the road, they have been unable to do so.
In one of the videos posted on Twitter, police officers can be seen attempting to use solvent to free their hands and then arrest them.

This is the latest in a series of protests organized by the group Insulate Britain in the last month.
Earlier this month, footage emerged of a woman desperately pleading with members of the group to let her pass because her mother had been taken to hospital and she needed to get to her.
In the footage recorded by LBC, the woman can be heard crying saying, “She’s in the ambulance, she’s going to the hospital in Canterbury, do you think I’m stupid? I need to go to the hospital, please let me through.
This is not right… How can you be so selfish?”
‘How can you be so selfish?!’

Protesters in high-visibility jackets could be seen talking to the woman, but did not appear to let her pass. According to the radio station, the woman was later able to pass.
Last week, a woman drove her car into a pair of protesters after they blocked her route during the school run.
