UKuncut anti-cuts action outside NatWest in Tower Hamlets, protesting against large bonuses for the partly public owned bank.

---

Photographs from the UKuncut Tower Hamlets action on the 25th June 2011. A small group of protesters met at Bethnal Green tube station and headed to a NatWest on the high street, which is part publicly owned but paid £900m in bonuses last year. They forced the bank to shut for an hour till 1pm, when it was due to shut anyway. The protest was noisy, short, lively and good natured.
