Protesters blocked every Ulez camera in Sutton, demanding justice for motorists in a demonstration against Sadiq Khan's controversial scheme.
Security guards protecting London's low emission zone cameras are accused of thuggish behaviour, including assault, intimidation and a refusal to display licenses.
Laurence Fox has been arrested on suspicion of conspiring to commit criminal damage to Ulez cameras after uploading a video online of police appearing to search his home.
Vandals were out in force once again yesterday, with one camera being covered in expanding foam while elsewhere a man held an anti-Ulez sign on top of ladder trying to block a camera's view.
Conservative MP and former party leader and Government minister Sir Iain Duncan Smith has said he backs the 'blade runners' who are disabling Ulez cameras because they have been "lied to".
Millions of drivers are in danger of being hit by a new pay-per-mile road tax under Labour plans that are already being worked on by London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who has proposed to use Ulez cameras to enforce it.
Nearly nine out of 10 Ulez cameras have been vandalised in southeast London, according to an analysis of crowd-sourced data. A total of 500 are reported as out of action as the expansion date looms.
Activists are tagging Ulez cameras with posters put on poles to protest Sadiq Khan's expansion of the capital's ultra-low emission zone, pointing up at the technology and labelling them with the words 'spy camera'.
Sadiq Khan's Ulez-expansion is getting real for the residents of a suburban cul-de-sac after a camera is erected in the middle of their quiet street.
The Metropolitan Police have confirmed that 387 Ulez cameras have been damaged, stolen or obscured in London as activists wage war on Sadiq Khan's eco-scheme.
