MORE FORTRESS' SHAREHOLDER PROTESTS IN THE CITY

Friday, 17th September

We had waited a while for this demo to happen as we wanted the builders to clear away and be less disruption for our demo against Nomura's new flagship HQ offices at 1 Angel Lane, London, EC4R 3AB (just a minutes walk from an old target, the NYSE).

With the building being made of glass our message about Nomura's financial ties with animal abuse were clear to see for all in their offices. We had a good demo and this was a good location for us, with many people wanting information. So see you soon Nomura.

We then headed to the registered address of Nomura at Nomura House, 1 St Martins le Grand, near St Paul's, where we went round the building reminded Nomura of their unethical investments and financial support of Fortress Investment Group, that funds the abuse and torture of 500 animals every day in HLS.

Then it was across the road, (why are all these unethical companies in groups we wonder?) to Bank of America, at 100 Newgate Street/2 King Edward Street, London. Apart from them investing in Fortress, you may also remember that they were given a large amount from the US taxpayer to keep them going. Aren't banks great, not only do they lend people and companies money that's not theirs to start with, but they get the government to bail them out too! This is just another example of the callous disregard BoA have and always put profit before anything else. So we were there to remind them that there will always be consquences from their actions and we will continue to demo and highlight their involvement in abuse and corruption.
