Saw this today in Charing Cross road. The building occupied is an empty bank.

Calling themselves the Love Activists, a group of 20 people on Saturday took over the grade II-listed building on the corner site of Charing Cross Road and St Martin’s Lane which has been empty for 18 months.

Previously leased by the RBS group and housing a branch of National Westminster Bank, the squatters say that the building has “been taken by the people” in a statement posted on their Facebook page. The current ownership of the corner site is unclear: Land Registry records show that the owner is Greencap Ltd, a Jersey company that appears to have been dissolved.

According to one of the activists, Danny Freeman, 22, the fact that the building was previously used by RBS, which was bailed out by the taxpayer during the financial crisis and today remains 79% owned by the state, has made their message of “homes not banks” all the more resonant
