Rishi Sunak, the Chancellor, condemned the protest.
Three people were arrested.
Three individuals were arrested on Tuesday for harassing politicians at their home addresses, according to the Metropolitan police.
The arrests were made under Section 42 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Home Secretary James Cleverly both condemned the incidents, expressing that such behavior is intolerable and will not be accepted.
The British government is facing calls to release its legal advice on whether Israel's actions in Gaza violate international humanitarian law, following the deaths of three British aid workers in Israeli airstrikes.
Several Conservative MPs and influential figures have urged the government to stop supplying arms to Israel if there is evidence of a serious breach of international law.
Labour Party leader Keir Starmer and his shadow foreign secretary, David Lammy, have also pressed for the publication of the legal advice and the halting of arms sales if necessary.
