BARCLAYS PROTEST IN LIVERPOOL

Saturday, January 17th

Activists today congregated outside Barclays Bank on Lord Street, Liverpool Town Centre to inform the public about their shares in animal cruelty. About 15 people held banners, gave out leaflets and chatted to shocked public outside the branch.

A stall was also set up with a petition which the passers by queued to sign! The demo was a great success and many Barclays customers said they would complain to the bank. After all it is the customers money that has been invested in such appalling cruelty! Two people said they wanted to close their accounts following the news and one person was going to open a Barclays account but is now taking their business elsewhere!

So Barclays, apart from the fact that investing in cruelty is wrong and will never be justified, at such a difficult financial time HLS are not good for business. Time to sell your blood-money shares Barclays!

Oh sorry, we forgot you like losing money. After all you'll get bailed out by the tax-payer? HLS (LSR) share price continues to stay low below $9, it dropped to less than $8 on 14/01/09 a fall of nearly 80% since September 2008, who said the SHAC sales had finished?
