Anarchist hails ‘victory for free speech’ in Qatar fight
Sam Tobin reports from the High Court
CLASS WAR activist Ian Bone hailed a “victory for free speech” today after the owners of London’s Shard skyscraper dropped an attempt to block a protest against empty luxury flats.
Mr Bone, 70, posted on Facebook last week announcing “weekly actions” outside the Shard, which is ultimately owned by the Qatari royal family.
He added that “the aim is to occupy the empty apartments” and to “start a mass squatting movement.”
