IDIOTIC eco-mob protesters from Just Stop Oil have explained why they didn't move for a panicked mother in trouble.
The orange-dressed timewasters were caught on camera blanking a terrified mum trying to race her sick newborn baby to hospital.
"Move now, that's my baby in that car," the woman is seen telling one high-vis-wearing idiot. "We need to get to hospital."
When probed by SundayStar.co.uk over their unforgivable actions, Just Stop Oil said they refused to budge because the ordeal wasn't "life-threatening".
A spokesperson explained: "The incident happened on the Westway at approximately 8:50am on Friday."
Speaking to SundayStar.co.uk, the group said they had been marching for around 15 minutes and that no police were on scene.

They added: "We understand that the woman left her car to approach the Just Stop Oil supporters and told them that she had a baby in the car that she was taking to a hospital appointment."
In an attempt to justify their actions, Just Stop Oil admitted the group "made the decision" to ignore the woman and continue their march.
"After listening to the woman and hearing her concerns, our supporters made the decision that, as this was not a life-threatening emergency, they would wait for the police to arrive before leaving the road," the spokesperson told us.
They added: "The police arrived approximately 5 minutes after the incident and our supporters left the road immediately.
"Our policy is, and has always been, to move out of the way for emergency vehicles with siren sounding and 'blue lights' on."
