Eco protesters have again clashed with furious drivers as they blocked roads at an industrial park near the Dartford Crossing and a junction of the M25.

Irate motorists dragged protesters from the road, where they were sat down or laid out, as the scenes turned violent. The area is considered a bottleneck for freight lorries, drivers told LBC.

One man was seen ripping the Insulate Britain banners from activists, while others angrily remonstrated with them.

An activist was dragged out of the way of traffic as he remained in a seated position, and was grabbed by a man as he attempted to return.
