Activists used superglue, chains, and bike locks to prevent Lloyd’s of London employees from entering the company’s headquarters.

From 7 am on Tuesday, more than 60 protesters stood outside the headquarters of a London-based environmental group to demand that the market stop providing insurance for fossil-fuel projects.

There is no doubt that climate change is a serious issue, and Lloyd has made it clear that it supports a prudent transition in this regard.

This morning, we issued a warning to Corporation workers and market participants not to visit the building out of concern for their own well-being.

“The market is still open, and we’re able to continue trading remotely.”

Government officials are also facing requests for “nationwide injunctions” after a second group of climate protesters delayed fuel deliveries.

Since the Just Stop Oil group and linked activists launched their action on April 1, hundreds of individuals have been imprisoned – with more than 350 arrests at Grays in Essex alone, amid police accusations of “exceptionally dangerous” tactics by protestors.
City of London Police said that no one had been arrested as of Tuesday midday, and that officers were attempting to “promote peaceful protest.” they stated.

A statement from the force’s Commander Umer Khan stated that “Police officers are working with key partners and liaising with Lloyd’s to facilitate peaceful protest and to deliver a suitable reaction.”

“End Fossil Fuels Now,” “Insure Climate Justice,” and other messages were scrawled on the outside of the facility, according to XR.

Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion protesters caused Tower Bridge to be shut down for several hours on Friday morning as a result of the protests.

After demonstrators occupied the bridge and unveiled a green banner with black text reading “End fossil fuels now,” police were called to the scene.

“We’re here to demand a stop to all new fossil fuel investments and insurance,” XR spokesperson Clare Walmsley said of the march on Tuesday.

As a result of funding the world’s most dangerous fossil fuel projects, they are causing climate catastrophe, which includes floods, starvation, wildfires, and death.”
