  • Five people blocked the main gate at Sizewell B nuclear power station in Suffolk after locking their arms inside barrels of concrete.
  • A dozen protesters superglued their hands to entrance doors at oil firm BP’s headquarters in central London.
  • Campaigners dressed as “red herrings” protested at the offices of carbon offset firms Climate Care in Oxford and the Carbon Neutral Company in London.
  • A group invaded the London offices of Bridgepoint Capital, a private equity firm who are behind the expansion of Leeds-Bradford Airport.
