The daughter of a Holocaust survivor was kicked out of The O2 after confronting Roger Waters with an Israeli flag during his London show over his "disgusting" views.

Yochy Davis and three other Jewish activists walked from their seats to an area close to the Pink Floyd frontman as he began to fire a prop gun into the air while dressed in a costume resembling that of the SS.

As the sound of gunfire echoed around The O2, the group unfurled two large Israeli flags.

One was ripped from their hands by security staff almost immediately, while another was held directly in front of Waters.
