Soon after the demo begun, a miserable manager stepped out from Barclays, threatening to "phone the police about us" - oh no! And after realising that we were in our legal rights to protest there, she then tried asking us if we'd "move further out of the way" from Barclays to protest, to which we refused and stayed put.

Every passer-by, every barclays customer and every barclays staff at this bank will of heard today about what a sick atrocity of a company Barclays has decided to invest in.

And after hearing just that, we gained much public support. Plenty of people took leaflets, said they would join the SHAC campaign to fight HLS, and one lady who'd just created an account with Barclays, came out to see what we were protesting for and once she knew she went back in and cancelled her account!

A police officer eventually arrived on the scene, and asked us if we'd protest just a few steps further infront of Barclays so as not to cause so much disruption - our demonstration was almost over anyway as closing-time for Barclays was soon approaching by the time he arrived, so we agreed and some of us then stood on a near-by wall close to Barclays and became even more visual.

The demo was a success, and we gained plenty of public support who are now informed about just who and what Barclays is involved with - and have vowed against them.

Another stressful day for Barclays, and there'll be more to come until they drop HLS!
