Protesters are blocking Westminster Bridge in the heart of London as UK lawmakers debate legislation that would grant police more powers to control protests.

Video filmed early on Monday evening (March 15) shows protesters walking across the major bridge as Members of Parliament debated the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill in the Commons.
