Climate change protesters close road leading to UKs biggest oil refinery blocking 50 oil tankers at the site in Essex | Mail Online
Hundreds of demonstrators blockaded the road to an oil refinery and claimed they stopped 375,000 gallons of fuel from leaving the depot.
The protesters, who barricaded the road leading to the Coryton Oil Refinery near Stanford-le-Hope, Essex, said they prevented more than 50 oil tankers getting to and from the site, which they accuse of exacerbating climate change.

You'll love this. They blockaded two refineries, Coryton and Shell Haven. Except it turns out that Shell Haven closed in 1999. So they blockaded a site long mothballed.
