		You might say it was an “uphill” battle from there, as Fathers-4-Justice went to extraordinary “heights” to make their plight known: that there are millions of fathers around the world who, by law, are not allowed to see their children and have been treated unfairly by courts.
		So, let’s look at the undisputable facts: millions of fathers are removed from their children’s lives even though they have never abused or neglected them (what the U.S. Supreme Court refers to as being a “fit” parent).

		Whilst throwing the bombs (reported to be made from either self-raising or corn flour), one of the organisation members shouted, "Fathers for justice!" Fathers 4 Justice spokesman Matt O'Connor later explained the choice of colour, stating that "purple is the international colour of equality".
		He remained on the ledge for five hours until police were able to convince him to come down in a "cherry-picker" crane.
		Indeed, if Hatch and Pyke, two "ordinary guys" (Pyke's words), were able to bypass security so easily, the question became: what was preventing an armed criminal or a terrorist from entering a government building, and with Her Majesty and Tony Blair as possible terrorist targets, what was protecting them?
