TAUNTON MP Rebecca Pow was interrupted on two fronts as she was being interviewed on Sky this afternoon (Monday, October 24).
Ms Pow was in the Central Lobby of the Houses of Parliament giving her reaction to Rishi Sunak becoming the country's third Prime Minister of 2022 when a group of Greenpeace protesters staged a noisy sit down.
As Ms Pow spoke, a security officer momentarily intervened and tried to cover the camera with his hand.
A video of the incident was uploaded onto Twitter earlier by political reporter Eleanor Langford. She has now deleted the tweet and the video over "security" concerns.
There's a sit-in protest by Greenpeace going on in Central Lobby right now
