Charlie Gilmour has been charged by police for his actions during the student protests in London last year.

The son of Pink Floyd's David Gilmour was photographed swinging from a Union Jack flag on the Cenotaph war memorial while students were protesting the rise in university fees.

Police revealed in a statement that Charlie had been charged with "violent disorder and theft of a mannequin leg".

Charlie will appear at Westminister Magistrate's Court on February 10.
