EIGHT Youth Demand supporters were arrested after more than 70 protesters blocked four major roads in central London on Saturday.

The group has said it will “shut down” the capital with a series of protests this month.

It is calling for a total trade embargo on Israel and for the super-rich and fossil-fuel elite to pay damages to communities and countries  most harmed by the burning of fossil fuels.
