A teacher involved in the climate protests who has been arrested on all three days of the M25 chaos this week has vowed to keep returning to block the motorway.
The woman, known only as Sandy, said the Insulate Britain activists were 'well protected by the police' amid fury from drivers who were stuck on the road.
The 31-year-old protester also said that losing her teaching job was only a 'small concern' compared to the environmental impact of Britain not lowering emissions.
She added that there had been a 'lot of screaming at us from motorists' earlier this week but there was 'less opportunity for it' today thanks to the police's involvement.

It comes after ministers urged officers to take 'swift' and decisive action against the activists after the M25 was blocked today, after protests on Wednesday and Monday.
Drivers have tried to clear the roads themselves, with one Metropolitan Police officer even filmed helping protesters to walk in front of cars and take their places.
