Climate change protesters briefly interrupted a high-profile speech by British finance minister Philip Hammond to leaders of the country's financial services industry on Thursday.

Several protesters, shouting slogans, prevented Hammond from speaking for a few minutes before being ushered out of a hall in London's Mansion House. Hammond resumed his speech shortly afterwards.
