A group of protesters from New Fathers 4 Justice have scaled the gate of Apsley House in Hyde Park.

The six activists have been on top of the landmark since 6.45am and claim they are part of an “international protest.”

Police are currently at the scene and are making enquiries to find out what the group are protesting about.

The demonstrators have hung a banner from the top of the building advertising their website and two are dressed in superhero costumes.

A description on the New Fathers 4 Justice website said they use “direct action” and “protests to highlight the injustice father’s face in the present family court system.”

The group is not affiliated with the Fathers 4 Justice group set up by Matt O’Connor.
