Sky News was forced to "abandon" its interviews in the House of Commons this afternoon after a security officer interrupted its broadcast. The officer stood in front of a camera to stop protestors from being filmed inside the central lobby of the House of Commons.
The unusual action from the Parliament officer took place this afternoon shortly after Rishi Sunak was announced as the next Prime Minister. During Sky News' reporting of the political news, the broadcaster cut to senior political correspondent Jon Craig who was conducting interviews from Westminster.
During his interviews, protestors ran to the middle of the central lobby and sat down in protest. It was later revealed the protestors were members of Greenpeace who were demonstrating against the Government's response to the energy crisis.
