Greenpeace activists put black fabric on Rishi Sunak's mansion in oil protest – video

Greenpeace protesters climbed on to the roof of the prime minister's mansion in North Yorkshire and draped it in oil-black fabric to 'drive home the dangerous consequences of a new drilling frenzy'. The climbers managed to get on top of Sunak's constituency home in Kirby Sigston as the PM flew to California on holiday. After reaching the top of the building using ladders and climbing ropes, they unfolded 200 sq metres of fabric to cover one side of the property. Last week, Sunak pledged to 'max out' the UK's oil and gas reserves as he announced 100 new licences for North Sea drilling, which experts say could be catastrophic for the climate
