There are instances in the UK where trespass is criminal, railways and some government buildings, but to actually charge someone with criminal trespass in the UK would either be because they were also committing a more serious crime, or because of legal overreach. So someone making threats to kill or causing criminal damage while also committing criminal trespass is likely to face full charges, while someone only committing criminal trespass is likely to only face arrest and minor legal action at worst.
Occupying a government building as an act of political protest is morally acceptable, in my opinion. Certainly not treason.
