    Greenpeace protest at Bank Of England

    Just walked past - 4 protestors held by security but apparently will be allowed to unfurl a banner - something about stopping Greed?

    Quite a few police/media hanging round there......

    Are they protesting at all the trees needed for the banknote-printing frenzy to come?

      A cameraman told me its something to do with stopping Greed. IMO the connection is fairly tenuous.

        Used to have quite a bit of time for greenpeace but they seem to be going down the politics of the left.

            They have made many valid contributions to the present world, it's just that now everyone and their dog is green, to still exist as a movement they have to be offset from the mainstream.
