Animal Rebellion protesters block Westminster Bridge

Video shared on social media showed one member of the public dragging Animal Rebellion protesters from the road - as the action brought traffic on the bridge to a standstill for an hour from around 10am.

The action saw one protester dressed as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak sit down for a “candelit Valentine’s dinner” in the road with another, dressed to represent animal farming and fishing.
