Twenty-three Heathrow Airport protestors were arrested by police at the House of Parliament during an anti-third runway demo which saw just as many who successfully dodged security and scale walls to the roof remain.
Approximately twenty-five protestors, part of a peaceful environmental demonstration, refused to climb off the roof with officers trying to talk them down and reason with representatives on the ground.
Security alarms were activated at 3pm today as the large group began climbing onto the roof of the Visitors’ Entrance in Cromwell Green, Westminster.
Six hours later half of them, assisted by police, descended from the roof of Westminster Hall and were arrested on suspicion of trespassing on a protected site.
They were taken to a Central London police station and later bailed pending further enquiries.
