In an updated statement Police Scotland confirmed officers are still in attendance at the site.

The group claim there has been "no oil tanker activity" in the town since they arrived at around 4am on Wednesday.

Clydebank Post:

We previously reported that demonstrations were being held by This is Rigged in Clydebank and Grangemouth (Ineos refinery) in a bid to “take down the Scottish oil industry”.

The group claim they won’t stop until all new oil licences in Scotland are stopped.

Clydebank Post:

It is understood that in the last 24 hours, 20 arrests - eleven women and nine men - have been made at the site in Grangemouth.

Assistant Chief Constable Emma Bond said: “Twenty people have been arrested and charged for offences under section 68 of the Public Order Act and breach of the peace at the INEOS site in Grangemouth on Wednesday, July 19.

“Decisions about how to police protests require us to balance complex and often competing rights and issues.

"We have a legal duty to protect the rights of people who wish to peacefully protest or counter-protest.

“The guiding principles of policing protests are the safety of protestors, the public and police officers involved, preventing criminal behaviour or disorder and deescalating tensions.

"A small group remains gathered at the oil terminal at Rothesay Dock in Clydebank and officers are currently in attendance.”
