Topless woman taken away by police outside Prince Philip’s funeral

A topless woman has been apprehended by police at the funeral of Prince Philip after loudly protesting towards the end of a minute’s silence for the royal.

Officers were seen leading a woman away from Windsor Castle and St George’s Chapel, where the funeral of the former Duke of Edinburgh is taking place.

Police were later seen retrieving clothing believed to have been owned by the woman, who ran onto the road shouting “save the planet” after the crowd began clapping following the silence.

She jumped onto a statue of Queen Victoria before police officers removed her from the scene on Castle Hill.
