Greenpeace volunteers in kayaks and boats board a 23,498-tonne ship on a major import route bringing Volkswagen diesel cars into the UK. Other volunteers on land gained access to the vehicle park at Sheerness port in Kent after scaling fences. They are attempting to immobilise all of the VW diesel cars. The clean air campaigners draw up alongside the huge car carrier in the Thames Estuary.
The action is to highlight the toxic emissions of diesel vehicles.
