Protestors Prevent Arms dealers From Attending Farnborough Air Show

A double decker coach packed with arms dealing delelgates, literally standing in the isles gagging for the spectacle of the Farnborough air show, were held up for over an hour by four peace protestors.

The double decker coach packed from floors to celings with delegates hoping to attend the Farnborough air show, was held up for over an hour by just 4 peace activists.
Two protestors were locked on under the coach preventing it from continuing to this delightful event.
There were traffic tail backs for miles whilst the police removed the protestors from under the coach. These brave two were arrested with two other protestors who were standing near by and charged with conspiracy "TO DO SOME THING".
As this report came in the person calling had their banner confiscated under PACE.
Is this legal?
