XR protesters claim to have used superglue, chains and bike locks to block entrances to Lloyd's of London.
Police were called to the bridge after protesters occupied the famous landmark and unveiled a banner.XR spokesperson Clare Walmsley said of the Lloyd's protest: "We're here to demand an end to all new fossil fuel investments and insurance.
"By underwriting the world's most deadly fossil fuel projects, they are creating climate chaos - floods, famine, wildfires and death. "Insuring new oil and gas projects in the North Sea will do nothing to solve the cost of living crisis either.In a statement Lloyd's of London said it "supports safe and constructive engagement on climate change and we're continuing to work to support a responsible transition".
It added that employees had been advised not to come to the building "in the interests of our people's safety", but "the market remains open and trading is continuing online".
