ITV: US upside-down flag protest at Palace
A grandmother from Hull has scaled the gates of Buckingham Palace in protest at George Bush's visit.
The protester, Lindis Percy, a member of the Campaign for the Accountability of American Bases, campaigns against US military bases in Britain.
She pinned an inverted Stars and Stripes flag to the railings, with a message on it that reads: "Elizabeth Windsor and Co - He's not welcome here."
Following the security breach, police cordoned off the area in front of the palace around the Queen Victoria Monument, and an ambulance was at the scene.
