Protesters gather outside Barclays AGM in Glasgow

Protestors from numerous activist groups have gathered outside the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow in an attempt to disrupt the Barclays AGM.

Objectors from groups including Extinction Rebellion, the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Fuel Poverty Action and Scottish Friends of Palestine took to the building with flags and banners on Thursday morning with the aim of influencing shareholders meeting inside.

It is claimed the bank now holds over £2bn in shares of companies whose weapons, components, and military technology are used by Israel in Gaza.

Some protesters managed to gain access to the AGM and were filmed disrupting the event before they were ejected.
