Five climate change protesters have been released on bail after they were arrested for climbing on the roof of Parliament yesterday.
The activists breached security at Westminster by climbing on to the roof of the Houses of Parliament to demonstrate against the expansion of Heathrow Airport.
The campaigners from the group Plane Stupid unfurled two huge banners over the historic building and remained on the roof for three hours.
The three men and two women said they gained access to Parliament as visitors, walked through the building, got into a lift and then climbed onto the roof.
