A colony of around 40 seagulls is causing sleepless nights for many homeowners along a north London street.

Residents of St John's Grove in Islington say the flocks of angry seagulls is making residents' lives hell with their constant squawking, swooping and leaving droppings.

Islington Council say they cannot do much to rid the street of the troublesome pests as seagulls are protected by Government legislation.
