Sotheby's 'Dignity under the Hammer' protest

Old Bond St, London. Wed 1 Jul 2015

  
 
 The police obviously seem to be trying to do what Sotheby's want them to

 but the protesters are not letting police move them

 

 

 People can still go in and out of Sotheby's but have to walk around the banner

 or past protesters holding banners. But the protesters are careful not to try to prevent them entering

 

 

 A man in a really bad suit goes into the Sotheby's auction

 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An officer tries to get Class War to move their banner away 

 

 A woman arrives by taxi for the auction

But the water pistols are fired at others from Class War, not the rich 

The protest seems to be reaching its end as I have to leave
