There has been high police presence for several days. What damage have the occupiers done to the inside of the building, apart from superficial (in context) damage ie grafitti that the world already knows about- and where is the evidence? I would also like to see evidence of the occupants throwing things at the police.Is this a birds-eye account or is there an official source.

45 years ago, Students sit-in and occupation of Liverpool Universities Senate House, part of this was over housing. Liverpool University has since apologised for the subsequent punishments and co-operated fully in the 40th anniversary (I can't see the bank owner doing this in 40 years time).

I'm glad to see (hopefully) it's over. I do hope they don't take over another one. Have heard that most of them come from down south, don't know how true that is but let them go back again..

Lets hope the judge they get is also a landlord and understands the owner's plight.

I would hope that any damage would be properly recorded, in the presence of independent witnesses, and the occupiers billed for it. In the pictures I saw, they appeared to all be young and fit, so why weren't they working? I'd also like to see any of their benefit claims investigated. Just a load of troublemakers.

I'm glad there is proof the plaque was present at the start of this vandalistic occupation, hopefully there is proof for the other items also.

Grim. frown Not items easily fitted into a handbag,or indeed, a rucksack!!

The plaque was leaning against one of the pillars, in the main banking hall on the 22nd April, undamaged.

You're facing a losing battle, being an apologist for that rabble.
