A self-employed insulation fitter was fuming at Insulate Britain activists as they blocked off the M25 and caused traffic issues chaos for thousands of motorists.
Tom Watson, 37, provides eco-friendly homes and he left his van to make his point to the activists, after cops held him back and refrained him.

Tom told The Sun: "I just wanted to tell them, 'Don't stop me getting to work and doing my job'.
"They're called Insulate Britain.
"Well, insulating homes is what I do.

"How does stopping me doing that job help the environment?
"I'm saving the country huge amounts of CO2 every year, never mind all the other builders like me.

"It's cost me hundreds and it's the same for other tradesmen.
"We all want to do the right thing by the environment but stopping workers fitting insulation ain't it.
"And taking money out of the pockets of the builders actually doing what they want is madness."
He says that the three hours of work that he lost has cost him £500.

According to the Sun, Tom had left a job to collect materials from Watford where he was got caught in the major traffic jams.
Despite being a WKO European Muay Thai title-holder, he says that he had no intention to get physical with the protestors.
He added: "As soon as I tried to get anywhere near them, the cops started pushing me, I was doing nothing wrong."
The M25 was also targeted at the Dartford Bridge and the A1M with 41 people being arrested.

PM Boris Johnson said of the protest: "I don't think these people do any favours to their cause.
"What they do is detract from a very important moral mission that is widely shared by the people."
