Activists superglued shut RBS branch doors on Friday night, and graffitied RBS logos around the city. RBS branches were forced to close on Saturday as Climate Camp protestors targeted city centre branches.
One set of protesters performed 'Dirty Oil', a spoof version of the Lady Gaga song 'Pokerface' with the words changed to highlight RBS' investments in the Tar Sands. The St Andrew's Square branch was closed to prevent activists performing inside. The group later hijacked an RBS-sponsored stage at the Edinburgh Fringe.
The song included the lyrics:
"It's getting hot, the planet's nearly shot
We'll make 'em stop, we're putting up a block.
Can't deny, can't deny that tar sands is dirty oil
Tar Sands is dirty oil."
