The People vs the Banksters

City of London

2009

 

As huge snowfalls brought London to a standstill in February 2009, we thought that we would go and play with the bankers who have been recklessly playing with people’s money, destroying the economy and the climate in the process. A flurry of text messages and emails the night before was enough to launch The People vs the Banksters: Mass Snowball Fight. 40 people gathered in front the Oil and Gas Bank (aka Royal Bank of Scotland) in the City of London and challenged the workers to a snow ball fight. Most of them cowered behind the glass frontage but a few came out and played.
