Oct 2013 - my london diary

	Fossil-Free London Lobby Tour Bank & Stock Exchange, London. Tue 22 Oct 2013
	People met up at Bank a few minutes later than promised and there were a few songs and some poetry from Pete the Temp The protesters surrounded the area with hazard tape 'Climate Crime Scene' As well as songs and poetry there was also a short talk about why this was a Climate Crime scene People filled black (and purple) balloons to represnt carbon dioxide. They had intended them all to be black but found it difficult to find black balloons Some burst as they tried to label them with Tippex or felt pen
	From Bank the protesters walked to the Stock Exchange pausing briefly at the north entrance before going around the the main entrance on Paternoster Square ignoring a legal notice on the way (if they noticed if) and there was a talk about the Stock Exchange's involvement in Climate Crime and a song (Buddy won't you spare a dime) People with their balloons Security men discussed the protest with police who had come to follow the tour around The prepared to pop the balloons And all but one has been popped - and the final one didn't last long
