BARCLAYS GET MORE PROTESTS IN BIRMINGHAM

Wednesday, 6th May

We decided to hold this weeks regular demonstration against Barclays today (usually we hold them every friday), we know how much they like suprises and there's more of those to come!

Today sees another successful demonstration against them in Birmingham as the pressure continues to increase against them, and the support continues to increase for us. The public were their usual supportive selves, more leaflets taken, more vows to boycott made, more interest in the campaign and more business lost for Barclays as more people closed their accounts because of the filth that Barclays are affiliated with, Huntingdon Life Sciences.

As top shareholder of HLS, Barclay's hands are drenched in the blood of the 500 animals that are tortured and murdered every day inside there. When will you realise Barclays that HLS is bad for business?

The list goes on of ideas that police officers are coming out with as to why we can't use a megaphone there, they get worse every time! - Today it was because "he didn't like it". Then another officer tried to imply that we were breaching the peace, then decided we weren't, but decided to threaten arrest anyway, feeling satisfied with themselves they both moved on, we stayed put to carry on LEGALLY naming and shaming Barclays for their ties with Huntingdon Life Sciences.

Until you cut your ties with HLS, Barclays.
