Saturday 19th March

Notts UK Uncut [Notts division] occupied Barclays Bank in Nottingham city centre. 

Notts UK Uncut [Notts division] occupied Barclays Bank in Nottingham city centre. The theme was "homelessness, hostel provision and general cuts in public services". 

Earlier bank occupations had taken place at NatWest.

Some people brought their own sleeping bags and for others, bedding was provided!

The police were called and read out the criminal trespassory and preventing lawful business bit of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994.

However, all remained fairly good natured and protestors left after a couple of hours.  

They then went on the usual tour around Nottingham, visiting the usuals at Vodafone, BHS, NatWest, TopShop & Boots.  All to highlight their lack of social responsibility in not paying there taxes.
