Steve Bray, also known as "Stop Brexit Man," celebrated outside court today (14 April), after he was cleared of flouting a police ban after playing anti-Conservative and anti-Brexit edits of The Muppet Show and Darth Vader’s theme outside Parliament.

The activist, 56, from Port Talbot, South Wales, was playing music on March 20 last year before then-prime minister Rishi Sunak arrived for Prime Minister's Questions.

Police had approached Mr Bray when he was stood on a traffic island at around 11.20am, and handed him a map to warn him he wasn’t allowed to play the speakers in the controlled area under a by-law, the court heard. He resumed playing the music intermittently and, over an hour later, officers seized the speakers.

The activist is known for playing music in protest around Westminster, famously playing D:Ream’s “Things Can Only Get Better” at the gates of Downing Street when Mr Sunak announced a general election in the pouring rain last May.

Mr Bray was found not guilty of failing without reasonable excuse to comply with a direction given under the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 “re prohibited activities in Parliament Square” at Westminster Magistrates’ Court.

Donald Trump has said Russia’s “terrible” missile attack on Sumy was a “mistake”.

Two Russian ballistic missiles struck the city of Sumy on Sunday, killing 34 people and wounding 117 in one of the deadliest strikes of the war.

“I think it was terrible and I was told they made a mistake, but I think it's a horrible thing. I think the whole war is a horrible thing,” the president told reporters on Air Force One on Sunday evening.

It comes after Volodymyr Zelensky urged Trump to visit Ukraine and see the devastation caused by the war himself. Mr Zelensky has demanded a tough international response to the Sumy attack, which came as Mr Trump rapidly pushed to end the conflict.

Torrential rain has battered Lanzarote, leaving homes and roads in the tourist hotspot flooded, and prompting authorities to declare a state of emergency throughout the Canary Islands.

Footage shows cars submerged on waterlogged roads, streams turned into dangerous rapids, and homeowners using buckets to bail water out of their houses after as much as 60 litres of rain fell in two hours on Saturday (12 April).
