"LONDON (AP) — Demonstrators climbed onto the roof of Britain's Houses of Parliament and unfurled a banner Wednesday 
protesting plans to build a third runway at London's Heathrow Airport.

The protesters, part of the campaign group Plane Stupid, gained access to the rooftop despite tight security at 
Parliament, including armed police guards.
Protesters threw paper airplanes from the roof and the banner — which was later cut down — said "No Third Runway."

Witnesses said five people were on the roof. Police said there were as many as six."
