LAMBs Spring Into Action
April 7th saw the Lloyds Bank A.G.M.
Approximately 60 of the best dressed lockers-on went to parade their gladrags and very nearly shut down this annual sycophantic display of bumlicking to the board. The agenda had only about half an hour scheduled, but the protests extended the meeting for over two hours, it was very generous of the bank to give two rows of seats over to Group 4 Securitas guards, presumably anxious to get news of how their current accounts were being managed.
Coincidentally, these same guards just happened be at the forefront of trying to silence the peaceful protests, and one had left a pair of bolt cutters in his trouser pocket.
Various attempts to handcuff on to the board’s table were scotched amid much furore, and some who had not been trained with the equipment, were not as familiar with Ann Summers’ restraining gear as the majority of the directors.
Repeated attempts to get the chairman to disclose the banks’ environmental lending criteria were ultimately unsuccessful but a meeting between campaigners and high level Lloyds mandarins has been arranged. Dialogue with the Midland is also taking place.
The LAMB’S are coming on in leaps and bounds, although at this rate, they may have to change their name if Midland continue in the present conciliatory fashion. However, they too have an A.G.M coming up which will probably receive a visit from eco-rads seizing the shareholding democracy firmly by the throat!!!
