'Batman and Spiderman' protest on Harman's roof

TWO Fathers 4 Justice campaigners were this morning staging a rooftop protest at the home of Labour Party deputy leader Harriet Harman.

The protesters were dressed as superheroes Batman and Spiderman.

It is the second time in little over a month the group has staged a protest at Ms Harman's home in Herne Hill, south London.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said police were called at 6.22am and officers were in attendance. It is not known if Ms Harman was at home when the incident began.

Last month two protesters, Jolly Stanesby and Mark Harris, both from south Devon, sparked a serious review of security around the Labour deputy leader, and Minister for Women and Equality, when they scaled the roof of her home dressed as superheroes.

The pair unfurled a banner with the words: "A father is for life, not just conception."

Mr Stanesby spent more than 24 hours on the Cabinet minister's roof in a protest that began on June 8 and ended the next day.
