Police "seized" an inflatable Loch Ness monster that anti-poverty campaigners had hoped to float on the River Clyde in Glasgow as finance ministers met at Cop26.

Jubilee Debt Campaign had planned to launch the inflatable on the water to highlight that there is "no climate justice without debt justice", which it said meant cancelling lower income countries' debt and providing climate finance without creating new debt.
