Squatters have occupied part of the former Royal Mint building opposite the Tower of London to protest against issues including climate change, homelessness and the widening gap between rich and poor.
The activists, who comprise various groups from across the capital, unfurled banners on Tuesday that read “system change not climate change” and “104,000 homeless children at Christmas”, as they took over part of the grade II-listed Johnson Smirke building, which was built in 1807.
