Police were forced to remove two pro-Palestine protesters from the Oxford Union on Thursday after they hijacked a speech by Nancy Pelosi, the former US speaker of the House.
The pair of students waved Palestinian flags as they disrupted her address at the debating society shortly after 6pm.
The protesters were swiftly removed by Thames Valley Police and escorted out as the crowd inside the chamber applauded.
