This criminal activity must stop. People are now getting hurt including an
@EssexPoliceUK
officer responding to protect the public. We’re on the side of people trying to get on with their lives. It seems
@JustStop_Oil
isn’t interested in anyone but themselves - stop this now!
An officer has been injured and two people have been arrested during our response to disruption on the M25.
An officer was injured following a collision involving two lorries after a rolling roadblock had been put in place between J26 and J27.
