Demonstrators have disrupted proceedings in the House of Lords as peers debated controversial new protest laws.
The group of around 12 were escorted out of the public gallery by doorkeepers and security staff, with one of the protesters saying they were from the environmental activist group Extinction Rebellion.
The Demonstrators were all wearing T-shirts bearing the slogan Defend Human Rights as they made their feelings known over the controversial Public Order Bill.
The upper chamber was adjourned for five minutes, while the protesters were escorted from the gallery, but there were no arrests.
