Lloyd's staff shocked as campainger climbs building to hang banner
Burma protestor Mike Robertson shocked Lloyd’s staff after climbing the London headquarters building today.
Robertson put up a five metre banner urging Lloyd’s underwriters to stop financial dealings with Burma. Robertson was later arrested by police.
His protest was timed to coincide with the eve of the birthday of Burma’s elected Prime Minister, Aung San Suu Kyi.
Suu Kyi’s 64th birthday falls on Friday 19 June; she’s now been detained under house arrest in Burma for the majority of the last 19 years.
Robertson scaled the Eiffel Tower in November 2007 to draw attention to the campaign.
