Footage has emerged of police responding to a Just Stop Oil protest above the M25 near Kings Langley.

In the video, a police officer appears to be removing the group's banners on the gantry above the blocked off M25.

A campaigner had reportedly climbed up there near junction 20 at around 7.16am today (November 8).

Specialist officers were called and a crane raising them up to the gantry can be seen in the clip, which was recorded from a car on the overpass.

The incident was one of several over the last two days affecting the M25's Hertfordshire stretch. Police confirmed so far two people have been charged.

There have also been several arrests – though police have been criticised for allegedly holding two press members for 13 hours, who claimed to have no affiliation with Just Stop Oil.

Protesters have warned motorists to expect more disruption in the coming days.
