Insulate Britain's leader insists 'no ambulances have been stopped' by their protests despite the eco-mob blocking paramedics on a 999 call only three weeks ago. 

Liam Norton defended the actions of the activist group in an interview on Saturday outside the Royal Courts of Justice in London during a protest.  

He said their actions are 'what's required in order to create change in our system to protect every single person in this country'.

Regarding comments that Insulate Britain protests have stopped people from going to hospital, Norton said these cases were 'almost nil'.

He added: 'People could find another route to hospital, there's no examples of ambulances being stopped'. 

His statement is at odds with multiple reports that ambulances have been caught up in tailbacks due to the protests.

He also stated in the interview that the climate agreements made at COP26 'tantamount to genocide' and that the NHS would collapse within a couple of decades.

He said the UK government was 'leaving millions of people to die' as he was arrested after blocking a junction during a protest in Vauxhall, south London, on Saturday.

Norton said: 'This is the start of a journey to resist criminality by our government that are leaving millions of people to die, they're allowing unimaginable horror to take place.'

The leader went viral in September after walking off the set of ITV's Good Morning Britain' after an argument with presenter Richard Madeley.

Hundreds of Insulate Britain activists forced Lambeth Bridge, London to close for five hours on Saturday, with the Metropolitan Police saying traffic was being diverted throughout the day 'for the safety of all'. 30 protestors were arrested, the force announced.

The eco-zealots marched throughout the city on Saturday afternoon, blocking roads and causing chaos for thousands of commuters in the capital while chanting: 'What do we want? Climate justice. When do we want it? Now.'

Pictures showed members of the eco-mob sitting on the A3203 on Lambeth Bridge with signs reading: 'Betrayed by my government' at around 2pm on Saturday, after warning earlier this week that the group would be returning to direct action at the Royal Courts of Justice in protest at the jailing of their road-blocking comrades.

A handful of protestors were pictured being forcibly dragged away by police officers, but the hated eco-group were able to keep one of London's major bridges closed for more than four and a half hours, resulting in further travel trouble for thousands of frustrated road-users.

At around 5pm, the Metropolitan Police finally announced that they had barred protestors from Lambeth Bridge under the terms of the Public Order Act, while urging those in attendance to 'leave the bridge' on Twitter. At 7.03pm, the force tweeted the bridge had reopened, more than five hours after the first protest.

They added: 'Lambeth Bridge remains shut as does Vauxhall Bridge southbound and some of Vauxhall Cross. We
