Protesters stage mock funeral march

Protesters staged a mock funeral, to demonstrate against the possible loss of a cemetery should a third runway be built at Heathrow Airport.

Around 150 campaigners followed an empty hearse from Trafalgar Square in central London down Whitehall to the Houses of Parliament.

Cherry Lane Cemetery near the M4 in Hayes is under threat from a proposed access road which is part of plans for the third runway.
