Fathers 4 Justice campaigners Nigel John Ace and Anthony Ashby scaled deputy Labour leader Ms Harman's home last week dressed as superheroes Spiderman and Batman.

Sales manager Ace, 40, from Bristol, and painter and decorator Ashby, 42, from Leicester face charges of harassment and using threatening words and behaviour when they appear at Tower Bridge Magistrates' Court.

They climbed onto Ms Harman's roof in Herne Hill, south London, last Wednesday and said that they had enough supplies to stay there for a week.

Both men were arrested by police shortly after leaving the roof on the evening of July 9.

It is the second rooftop protest on Ms Harman's home by Fathers 4 Justice in little over a month and two other campaigners also face prosecution.

Dressed as self-dubbed superheroes "Captain Conception" and "Cash Gordon", John Paul Stanesby, 41, and Mark Harris, 46, both from south Devon, spent more than 24 hours on the roof of the Cabinet minister's home on June 9.

They are due to appear at Tower Bridge Magistrates' Court on July 23 to face charges of harassment.
