UVW Topshop Protest - Oxford St

Topshop & John Lewis, Oxford St, London. Sat 16 Apr 2016

  
 
 Protesters hold up posters as they face police guarding the side door of Topshop

 'Topshop - We want London Living Wage - In-Work Poverty'

 Police again block the main door of Topshop on Oxford St

 

 

 Class War bring up a banner

 and stop a foot or two short of the police line

 

 Other protesters stand blocking half of Oxford St

 
 

Jane Nicholl holds up some Crime Scene tap 

 

and passes it over the top of the banner 

 

so it is in front of the line of police 

 

 

 

 

The protesters decide to move, and stand briefly in the middle of Oxford Circus  

before moving on to John Lewis 

As a few protesters approach the doorway,police reacted violently 

and one woman was thrown bodily to the ground several yards away. Police and protesters helped her up
