THIS is the shocking moment eco-idiots scaled Rishi Sunak's house in a massive security breach while he is on holiday.

In the disgusting display, the protesters sat on the Prime Minister's roof dressed in red suits and helmets while he vacations in California with his family.

In their latest stunt, the vile eco-yobs breached huge security measures by carelessly trespassing onto the property in Richmond, North Yorkshire.

North Yorkshire Police time was selfishly wasted as officers were forced to respond to outraged calls from the scene.

A force spokesperson said: "Officers on the ground have made a fifth arrest in connection with this incident.

"A man has been arrested on suspicion of causing public nuisance. He currently remains in police custody."

Members of the group were seen shamelessly grinning as officers led them away into a police van.

Former North Yorkshire Deputy Chief Constable Peter Walker told he was "absolutely astonished" the protesters were able to access the roof.

"It is clearly, in my view, a major breach of security. Obviously, nobody was there to prevent what they were doing and they've had access to the roof as well," he added.

"They have done a protest and don't appear to have caused any damage but, if free access is being granted to that property, people who wanted to do much more serious things would be able to leave devices, booby traps.

"I think this is a major failing and it grieves me to say it because it's my old police force that's failed."

A No 10 source previously confirmed "police are in attendance" and defended Mr Sunak's climate policies.

They said proudly: "We make no apology for taking the right approach to ensure our energy security, using the resources we have here at home so we are never reliant on aggressors like (Russian President Vladimir) Putin for our energy.

"We are also investing in renewables and our approach supports thousands of British jobs."

'SPOILT ACTIVISTS'

Alicia Kearns, the senior Tory who chairs the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, slammed the disgraceful protest and branded their security breach "unacceptable".

"Politicians live in the public eye and rightly receive intense scrutiny, but their family homes should not be under assault," she fumed.

"Before long police will need to be stationed outside the home of every MP."

Government minister Alex Burghart dubbed the activists "plonkers".

Meanwhile Conservative backbencher Brendan Clarke-Smith said: "MPs and their families have enough to worry about with their security without extremist groups and their spoilt activists pulling stunts like this at their homes to promote their unrealistic, extravagant demands and student union-level politics.";
