London, UK. 3rd May 2017. Protesters call on the LSE to put the equality which is at the root of its teaching into practice for the low paid workers at the LSE in a continuing campaign using 'peaceful civil disobedience combining art, humour and ridicule' to get the LSE management to end its hypocrisy. Students were stopped from protesting outside the library and forced to move onto the road outside, where they displayed flowers, posters and banners and handed out several hundreds of fliers.

London, UK. 3rd May 2017. Protesters call on the LSE to put the equality which is at the root of its teaching into practice for the low paid workers at the LSE in a continuing campaign using 'peaceful civil disobedience combining art, humour and ridicule' to get the LSE management to end its hypocrisy. Students were stopped from protesting outside the library and forced to move onto the road outside, where they displayed flowers, posters and banners and handed out several hundreds of fliers. At the end of the protest a man was arrested for so-called 'criminal damage', writing on a wall with wipe-clean chalk spray. He was tackled bodily by a LSE security guard when only writing the third letter of his intended slogan 'END INEQUALITY AT THE LSE'. Today's protest follows last week when the LSE demanded police arrest four people who had decorated a building with slogans and coloured spots in the wipe-clean chalk spray despite their offer to clean it at the end of the protest. The slogans demanded the director of the LSE take a £100,000 pay cut to give the lowest paid workers a living wage. A larger protest is planned for next week. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
