Total Oil's London HQ was targeted again this morning as workers made their way into the building in order to highlight the company's involvement in financially supporting the Burmese military junta.

After a mass call out, activists showed up again this morning to speak to office workers at Total Oil's London HQ about the company's involvement in Burma. Police forces were already present at the site, actually outnumbering protesters at 8:30, guarding the entrance and checking everyone entering the building, which caused significant nuisance and slowed things down a bit. A FIT team was also present, happily snapping pictures of people. After staging a die-in outside the entrance and handing out leaflets, it was decided to end the action and re-group for breakfast.
We shall be back.
