Jury sent out three times during address by Roger Hallam, who is on trial for alleged role in organising M25 blockade

Roger Hallam, 58, spoke for more than two hours on why a judge was wrong to rule that he and co-defendants could not bring evidence in their defence on the impacts of climate breakdown, and why such evidence justified the sort of acts of which they are accused.
