A woman was removed from a quayside during a visit by the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall.

The anti-Brexit protestor was moved on by police when she tried to push past a cordon in St Mary's.

Police said the visitor to the island was given a warning under section five of the public order act.

Prince Charles and Camilla are in the Isles of Scilly to open a new quayside as part of their annual trip to the South West of England.

Local businesses hope the quay will attract more visitors to the area.

Tourism accounts for more than 85% of its economy.
