Activists targeted the Glasgow offices as part of their 'campaign of disruption'.

Extinction Rebellion Scotland campaigners broke the windows at the offices at Clyde Place Quay on Monday morning before holding banners stating 'This is an Intervention' and 'Stop Funding Rosebank'.

XR Scotland will be holding a protest outside the bank this afternoon featuring speakers from Biofuelwatch, Fuel Poverty Action, Fridays for Future, Tipping Point, and Bank Track. Myke Hall of Extinction Rebellion Scotland said: "Barclays are putting up the money to develop Rosebank. They want to extract and burn millions of barrels of oil to get even richer. It's disgustingly greedy and it's violence against all life. We will not tolerate it"

"We all know we need to wean ourselves off fossil fuels. We all know the climate crisis is already hitting us yet Barclays still refuses to do the right thing for us. For all our sakes, they must stop using our money to fund fossil fuels."
