Cafe overwhelmed with customers after it is accidentally awarded a Michelin star

Meta - Loading the page with an UO on brings up a fully blocking component to show you how to turn off your ad blocker. Adding a filter to block that component puts it out of the way, but then disables navigation with the mouse (although you can select the title and then move down the page using the keyboard). Tried turning off UO and the page was a mess (autoplaying video and more). Is there a way to kill the ads without losing the scroll? Is there a way to convince the Telegraph to have a cleaner site that might encourage me to not use UO?

Is "UO" uBlock Origin?

Using Ghostery, the page works fine and shows no ad.

Site looks fine and readable with JavaScript (completely) off.

I have UO and I could closed the blocking component.

I also disabled UO to check the page and it seems relatively clean as far as advertising goes.

I use both UO and privacy badger, and the site worked fine for me.

noscript. Telegraph works fine without javascript - most newspapers do.
