Activists sang ‘climate criminal’ Christmas carols outside the Labour leader's house in north London - THOMAS BOWLES PHOTOGRAPHY

Just Stop Oil protesters were ordered to leave the area outside Sir Keir Starmer’s London home on Thursday night.

A group of activists gathered to sing what they described as “climate criminal” Christmas carols as they demanded Sir Keir commit to cancelling all new oil and gas drilling licences in the UK.

They delivered a letter to the Labour leader which stated: “How do you want to be remembered, Keir? As the ghost of Christmas past? Or as the man who gave us a future? It’s time for action, not words.”

Metropolitan Police officers ordered the group to disperse.

It is understood no arrests were made.
