Four men have been arrested at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s constituency home in North Yorkshire on suspicion of aggravated trespass.

North Yorkshire Police said the group were stopped within a minute of entering the grounds at 12.40pm, before being escorted off the property.

The men, aged 52, from London, 43, from Bolton, 21, from Manchester, and 20, from Chichester, remain in custody for questioning.

It is not clear if Mr Sunak or his family were home at the time.

The manor house in the village of Kirby Sigston, near Northallerton, was previously subject to a protest from four Greenpeace activists in August last year.
