Climate change protesters block city centre roads, Edinburgh, 17 June 2019

Pictured: Specialist officers cut free one of the protesters, who is then led away to be checked over by paramedics before being detained.

Climate change protesters blocked roads in the city centre including Lothian Road, where they chained themselves together inside concrete pipes meaning the police had to bring in specialist cutting equipment and teams to remove them, causing severe traffic disruption.
