  • Greenpeace activists left former prime minister Rishi Sunak with a £2,937 repair bill after they damaged 15 tiles when they climbed onto the roof of his North Yorkshire home, a court heard.
    Michael Grant, 64, Mathieu Soete, 38, Amy Rugg-Easey, 33, and Alexandra Wilson, 32, appeared at York Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday for the first day of their trial.
    They each pleaded not guilty to a single count of causing criminal damage at Mr Sunak's constituency home in Kirby Sigston, near Northallerton, on 3 August 2023.
    The Richmond and Northallerton MP also had to pay tree surgeons a £1,450 invoice after their scheduled work for that day was cancelled.

    One of the accused is an old roller derby teammate, so I'm keeping everything crossed that this case doesn't go the same way as the recent ones. Surely Rishi can just search down the back of the sofa and find 3 grand, can't he?
