A CLIMATE change protester from Faringdon super-glued himself to other campaigners on the Royal Bank of Scotland’s trading room floor.

Performance art student Chico Carino, 23, left, of Faringdon Road, pleaded guilty at City of London Magistrates’ Court to trespass and was conditionally discharged on Monday.

During a London-wide day of protest, 25 demonstrators blocked the doors of the bank’s City of London HQ as another half dozen vaulted security turnstiles and dashed up to the second floor.

They formed an interlocking ring secured by super-glue and chanted anti-RBS slogans.

Carino appeared alongside Bristol University biology student Bryony Tayler, 21, of Houghton le Spring, Tyne and Wear. She also pleaded guilty to aggravated trespass at the Bishopsgate building on September 1 last year.

Alexa Morgan, prosecuting, told the court the group – protesting against RBS’s investment in Canadian tar sands production – swooped on the building at 8am.

She said: “They super-glued their hands and arms together and were chanting anti-RBS slogans and disrupting trading on the floor.

“Specialist police officers attended and unglued them.”

Carino told magistrates: “Nothing is being done to save the world from the grave consequences of climate change.”

The defendants were conditionally discharged for 12 months and each ordered to pay £60 costs.
