A moaning protester who allegedly scaled the Bridge and caused traffic chaos which critics say led to the death of two women is now begging for cash from his prison cell.
Eco-zealot Morgan Trowland and Marcus Decker, 22, are accused of scaling the girders of the 275ft bridge over the M25 on Dartford on October 17.  
The alleged protest caused mayhem and prompted police to close one of the country's busiest roads.

The resulting tailbacks led to carnage on the roads, with Lisa Webber and losing their lives during a horror crash on the nearby M20.  
Trowland, 39, claims that two-day action, police trashed his home during a search of the property.
Now the environmental activist, from New Zealand, has launched a fundraiser to fix 'the damage' after moaning he is penniless while on remand in prison.

Trowland, set up a Crowdfunder appeal to raise £3,000 called ‘Help the QE2 climbers' - with 78 people coming to his aid so far. 
He said: 'Hi, I'm Morgan and I hope it lifted your spirits a little seeing Marcus and I climb the QE2 bridge to demand our government to just stop oil.
'Now I need your help.

After the police had us securely in custody, they proceeded to smash their way into my home, and a previous address of mine, destroying the doors, frames, and even some of the wall.
'It's not clear what the purpose of these raids was, as they presented no evidence of the raids in the prosecution case.'
Trowland, of Islington, north London, added: 'The repair work has been costly, time consuming, and has caused painful losses for family members and friends of mine who need help completing the job.
'Frustratingly I'm stuck in prison with no income, so I'm unable to help.

Can you help?
'I also need you to help renew my civil engineering registration so I can go back to work when I'm eventually released.
'Please note that I am receiving partial financial support for the repairs from the Climate Action Support Pathway, not to mention amazing legal and prison support. 
'Due to the large number of doors which the police are smashing at the moment, funding is being stretched so your contribution is sorely needed.
'Thanks for your help.

Love and Rage, Morgan.'

The protesters have unfurled a banner with the words Just Stop Oil between two of the masts on the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge
Two women died following the crash on the M20 last month, as traffic used the motorway to avoid the closed Dartford Bridge.

Essex Police carried out the raid on Trowland's London property on October 19 and insisted the property had been left secure.
A spokeswoman added: 'Following multiple attempts to obtain a key to the property to allow access, entry was forced causing damage to the door.
This entry was in line with our usual procedures and proportionate to carry out enquiries as part of our investigation.
'We have not received any formal complaint on this matter.'
But Trowland's fundraising campaign has drummed up £3,010 - and left some Brits furious online.
Louise Miles fumed: 'Keep them locked up and ruin their lives like they did to people on the two days of them being childish.'
Chris Bell said: 'I'm glad, I hope they throw away the key.'
Jordan Durling added: 'Hope they never get released, the tree hugging hippies.'
The pair's alleged bridge protest took place during Just Stop Oil's so-called 'month of protest' against new oil and gas exploration.
Dozens of activists from the pressure group cause chaos in London, blocking roads and scaling gantries over the M25, causing misery for thousands of rush-hour drivers.

'blood on their hands' after two women died on a motorway during the group's protest on Dartford Bridge. 
Lisa Webber, from Swanley, Kent, was hit by a speeding BMW car and thrown into on-coming traffic when she had stopped on the hard-shoulder of the busy M20 motorway to help another driver who had lost control in heavy rain.
Mother-of-one Dr Habiba Hajallie, known as 'Bee' by her friends and family, was also killed in the pile-up.   
Bee was working at the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford, Kent, when she died.

She lived in Swanley with her fiance Adam Linnell and their five year old daughter.
Speaking last month, her family said: 'It is with great sadness that the family of Dr Habiba Hajallie (aka Bee) announces her untimely and tragic death following a car accident on October 17, 2022 at the age of 35.
'Words cannot describe how she will be missed by her five year old daughter, mother, father, fiancé, brothers, sisters, grandmothers and extensive family and friends.
'Bee was a Consultant Geriatrician at William Harvey Hospital, Ashford and had been a doctor for nearly 10 years.
'She selflessly sacrificed by being away from her family for nearly a year on the frontline during the Covid-19 pandemic as a true NHS Hero.

There were more than seven miles of congestion in Kent and five miles in Essex on the M25 following the Dartford bridge protest.

'Bee had a passion and dedication for teaching and mentoring the next generation of doctors and invested a large amount of time in developing the new student training programme for East Kent.
'She was the most selfless person that everyone knew and was consistently involved in charity work for orphan children in Sierra Leone, amongst others.
Builder Mark Heap, 55, also came to a halt to help release the female driver of the stricken grey Infinity Q30 car four hours after the bridge demonstration began.
But both women and Mr Heap were run down by the BMW that attempted to avoid the huge traffic jam caused by the blockade of the vital M25 Thames River crossing.
From his hospital bed, Mr Heap, who suffered a broken back and a broken leg told MailOnline: ‘The eco-warriors may have thought it was an innocent protest, but they've got blood on their hands.'
At the time, drivers were using the M20 to avoid tailbacks following the closure of the Darford Bridge. 
Four vehicles were involved in the carnage — a grey Infiniti Q30 Sport, a black BMW X5, a black VW Golf and a white Iveco Daily van.  
The huge tailbacks led to chaos across Britain's motorways.

Recounting the crash, Mr Heap said: ‘The woman driver that crashed initially had aquaplaned because of the rain. Her Infinity car span out and hit the crash barrier. 
‘She was a dark-haired lady in the car.
She was hysterical.
‘I stopped to help her and Lisa [Webber] stopped as well. She was driving a black golf.
‘I went back to the scene and we all got hit by the BMW. I was squashed between the Infinity car and the crash barrier along with the driver.
‘Lisa got thrown the other side and into the traffic.

It was awful.'
Former Met detective chief inspector Mick Neville told the Sun that although the protest may not have directly caused the fatal M20 collision,      
Trowland and Decker are set to stand trial on March 27 next year.
On November 29, Decker, of no fixed address, denied causing a public nuisance.
He appeared by prison videolink and Basildon Crown Court.
Trowland did not attend the hearing but indicated a not guilty plea.
