Just Stop Oil (JSO) activists were arrested near Downing Street in central London on Thursday 30 October.

Police reportedly used new legal powers to detain members of the direct-action environmental group close to the British Prime Minister's official residence.

Section 7 of the Public Order Act 2023 bans any act “which interferes with the use or operation of any key national infrastructure in England and Wales”.

JSO have been marching regularly between Trafalgar Square and Parliament Square as part of their ongoing protest against climate action, particularly the government's decision to grant new fossil fuel licences.
